Do gas molecules get bigger when heated?
No, but the spaces between them gets bigger.
What are the spaces between particles of Solid Liquid and Gas?
The spaces between particles in a solid are very close together, forming a closely packed arrangement. In a liquid, the particles are closer together than in a gas but still have some space between them. In a gas, the particles are much farther apart and have large spaces between them.
When did Rutherford discover that atoms contain mostly empty spaces?
most of the alpha particle pass through the gold foil without deviation and the mass of electron are very small
What is an effect that adhesion produces?
Adhesion produces capillary action. Capillary action is liquid's ability to flow in narrow spaces without external forces like gravity.
How do convection radiators work?
Being designed to radiate (give out/emit etc) the thermal energy of the hot water inside them, a convection radiator will heat the air above itself. As the gas is heated it expands (thermal energy is "converted" to kinetic energy and hence the molecules move faster and hence expand), as the gas expands it's density decreases and so it rises above the cooler, denser gas surrounding it. As more gas is heated the gas will diffuse across the roof of the room and gradually cool. When the gas is initially heated it's original volume is filled by in-rushing cooler gas, this in turn is heated, eventually the original gas, which has recently cooled and descended, is heated once more thus forming a convection current. One of the problems with convection heating of any kind is the tendency for the central areas of large spaces to remain unheated, furthermore longer spaces may not be heated at the far end from the heat source as the gas cools and descends before travelling the length of the space.
When a liquid is heated what happens to inter particle spaces?
The particles spread out and 'jumble' . Hope this helps ;) x
Why can solids be converted to liquids?
In solids the intermolecular spaces are very small and the intermolecular forces of attraction are very high.When a solid is heated or get some form of energy, due to this the bonds between the molecules break and the intermolecular spaces increase.Thus as intermolecular spaces in liquid is greater it is converted to a liquid.
Is a particle of liquid Mercury the same size as the space between particles of Mercury in gas form?
No. The spaces between the particles in a gas are much bigger than the particles themselves. The size of a particle does not vary between the states of a substance.
What is a theory in science for kids?
The particle theory is a good theory that's sort of simple to understand. The particle theory consists of five parts. 1) All matter is made up of small particles 2) The particles are attracted to each other. 3) Particles are always moving. 4)When heated, particles move faster and move farther apart. 5) There are spaces between each particle.
Do gas molecules get bigger when heated?
No, but the spaces between them gets bigger.
Why are the liquid mobile?
liquid are mobile because the emptied spaces b/w them
What happens when the vacant spaces between the particles of a liquid decreases how can you do this?
you can shrink the spaces within the molecules of liquid by increasing the temperature (freezing it ) or adding pressure.
What is the evidence that molecules of g as large spaces between them compared to liquids and solids?
well,.....for gas when it is heated the molecules spread and have power and become into vapor, and compared to liquid and solid it is larger because liquid is a not a solid and does not have a fixed shape, and a solid has a fixed shape and gas can be put into anything!
How does a particle theory explain how a solute dissolves into a solvent?
You can use the particle theory to help explain what happens when solutes dissolve. The particle theory states that there are spaces between all particles. This means that, in a sample of water, there are many water particles, but also many empty spaces. When you look at sugar. The sugar dissolves, the sugar particles separate and mix with the water particles.
What particle takes up space?
Particles dont take up space it is heat that gives particles energy to move and expand solids have smaller spaces between them liquids have larger spaces between them gases have the largest spaces between them
How do gasses liquid and soilds differ in respect of the spaces between particles?
Liquids have smaller spaces between the molecules than a gas, and Solids have smaller spaces than liquids.
What fills the space between cells?
The spaces between cells are pores or air spaces. These spaces are scientifically called intercellular or extracellular spaces or material.
