How does the distance between the particles in atmospheric air compare to the size of the particles themselves?
Usually in a gas, the distance between molecules is larger.
How do you increase the distance between the particles affect the force between them?
me
What factors determine the magnitude of the electrical force between two particles?
-- The product of the electric charges on both particles.-- The distance between the centers of charge on both particles.-- The electrostatic permittivity of the space between themor of the substance in that space.
How is a solid different from a liquid or gas?
the distance between the particles and the average kinetic movement of the particles.
How does particle speed relate to the distance between particles?
Attractive forces pull particles together.
What is determined by the distance between the particles in a given substance?
Density.
Does steam or water have the greatest distance between particles?
water
How does the electric force between two charged particles change if the distance between them is increased by a factor of two?
The electric force between two charged particles is inversely proportional to the square distance between them.Accordingly, it is reduced by a factor of 9
In a SOLID, the distance between the particles is?
Closely packed ,tightly packed
What is the relationship between atmospheric pressure and the density of gas particles in an area of increasing pressure?
As air pressure in an area increases, the density of the gas particles in that area decreases.
When matter is transformed from the liquid state to the gas state the distance between the particles and the attractive forces between the particles A increases decrease or are abse?
It is a decrease.
Why are particles always in motion?
Particles are always in motion because they have an amount of heat energy stored within them. As additional heat is added, the substance's particles gain more energy, and will in turn increase distance between themselves, and weaken the bonds between them. In turn, when heat is taken away from a substance (it is cooled down) the particles loose energy, and the distance between them will decrease, causing the bonds between them to strengthen. The whole idea is known as the particle theory. However, particles may not be always in motion. Scientists discovered the temperature point of absolute zero, which is -273.15°C, or 0°K (Kelvin). This is the lowest temperature possible.
