Which type of substance is most likely to experience an attraction between its particles?

All substances experience attraction between their particles. These vary in type and strength. If there were no forces they would never form liquids or solids. You could say that the strongest bonds are in the substances with the highest melting points.


Force of attraction limit the motion of particles most in a solid a liquid a gas both liquid and gas?

The forces are referred to as intermolecular forces, a substances tendency for its molecules to attract to eachother. The stronger these forces are, the more likely a substance will find itself to be solid at room temperature. The reason for this is that the attraction to its own molecules is great enough that the individual particles kinetic energies are not enough to break the intermolecular force. If the IMF is weak, the substance is more likely to be a liquid or even a gas because the attraction to its own molecules is not enough to overcome the particles kinetic energies. In addition the larger a substances chemical structure is, the more surface area available for a molecule to interact and thus the IMFs are stronger, Examples of substances with strong IMFs: Water, NaCl, ethanol, amines Examples of substances with weak IMFs: aliphatic hydrocarbons ( propane ), acetone, ether


What do the initials PIASM stand for in the particle theory?

P-particles (All matter is made up of particles)I-identical (All particles in one substance are identical)S-spacing (There is different spacing between particles of different substances)A-attraction (Particles have a certain attraction to one another depending on the state)M-movement (Particles are in constant motion)


What is an attraction between particles of the same substance called?

An attraction between particles of the SAME substance is called cohesion.


Arrange the following in increasing order of force of attraction between the particles water sugar and oxygen?

Oxygen < Water < Sugar. The force of attraction between particles is based on the intermolecular forces present. Oxygen molecules have weak London dispersion forces, water molecules have hydrogen bonding which is stronger, and sugar molecules have intermolecular forces such as hydrogen bonding and dipole-dipole interactions that are stronger than oxygen but weaker than water.

What are the dispersion agents?

Dispersion agents are substances used to prevent clumping or settling of particles in a suspension. They work by reducing the attractive forces between particles and promoting uniform distribution in the dispersion medium. Common dispersion agents include surfactants, polymers, and electrolytes.


What is lyophillic colloids?

Lyophilic collids molecules are more attracted to the dispersion medium then the particles themselves there by coagulation does not takes place


How does adhesion affect flow rate?

adhesion causes the flow rate to go faster because of the attraction between the particles of a fluid and particles of other substances.


What is the difference between density and dispersion?

Population density shows how many people live in a given area. Dispersion shows where they live in that same are, whether clumped, uniform or randomly.


What word means the spreading of particles?

Dispersion.


What is a mixture of very tiny particles of pure substances that are dispersed in another substance that do no settle?

A colloid is a mixture in which very tiny particles of pure substances are dispersed in another substance, such as a liquid or gas, and do not settle out due to their small size and the constant motion of the particles. This results in a stable dispersion that appears homogeneous at first glance.


What scatters light and causes the phenomenon of dispersion?

Particles in the atmosphere scatter light and cause dispersion.

What is the attraction or repulsion between charged particles?

Charged particles experience attraction if they have opposite charges (positive and negative) and repulsion if they have the same charge (positive-positive or negative-negative). This is governed by Coulomb's law, which states that the force between charged particles is directly proportional to the product of their charges and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them.
