Properties of the three states of matter?
Solids: Atoms are not free to move about; they vibrate about their fixed positions Liquids: The particles are free to move about by sliding over each other Gases: The particles more about randomly at high speeds
When a load was added to the piston the volume of the liquid did not change but the volume of the air decreased Explain why this happened?
The particles in a liquid are very close together, so an increase in pressure cannot push them any closer. The particles in a gas are widely spaced, so they can easily be forced closer together. Gases are compressible, liquids are not.
When the potential energy of a material changes what happens to the materials what of matter changes?
In a solid the particles are close together and in fixed positions In a liquid the particles are still really close together but can move around past each other In a gas the particles are free to move and far apart During a state change the particles in the substance will change from being in one of the above to another
Is bromine a solid a liquid or a gas when the arrangement of particles is far apart and random?
Bromine is a liquid at room temperature. The description of particles is of atoms in a liquid.
Explain how the attractive forces between the particles in a liquid and the equilibrium vapor pressure of that liquid related?
The weaker the intermolecular forces, the easier the liquid evaporates. Higher vapor pressure the faster it evaporates. Thus, the weaker the attractive forces, the higher the vapor pressure and vice versa.
How do the positions and movements of particles in a liquide help to explain the shape and volume of the liquid?
because it nothing
How do the positions and movements of a particles in a liquid help to explain the shape and volume of the liquid?
because when the atoms meet up in the gases they separate and form more gases of matter. that's basically it!

What can particles of a liquid do that the particles of a solid can't do?
The particles of a solid can only vibrate about their fixed positions while the particles of a liquid can vibrate, rotate and translate (move from 1 place to another) within the liquid.
What can particles in a gas do?
They can seperate and they can also "flow"
How does the movement of particles in a liquid help to explain the shape and volume in a liquid?
Because its particles are free to move, a liquid has no definite shape. However, it does have a definite volume.
How particles change as they change state from solid to liquid?
As particles change state from solid to liquid, they gain energy that allows them to overcome the forces holding them in a fixed position. In a solid, particles are tightly packed and vibrate in fixed positions. As heat is added to the system, particles in the solid gain enough energy to break free of their fixed positions and move more freely, resulting in the transition to a liquid state.
What is the reason for the existence of the three states of matter?
The three states of matter (solid, liquid, gas) exist due to the different arrangements and movements of atoms and molecules. In solids, particles are tightly packed and vibrate in fixed positions. In liquids, particles are loosely packed and can move past each other. In gases, particles are far apart and move freely.
How are particles of a liquid different from the particles of a gas?
liquid particles have limited movements while gas particles will spread to fill the whole container uniformly (limited only by the container's volume) the particle interaction in liquid is much stronger than in gases gases are compressible while liquids are not
