Dissolving is the process in which one kind of matter is put into another kind of matter and the solution is either homogenous or heterogenous

How do you use the particle theory to explain everyday phenomena?

The particle theory states that all matter is made up of tiny particles that are constantly moving. By applying this theory, we can explain everyday phenomena such as the expansion of gases when heated, the process of dissolving sugar in water, and the behavior of solids, liquids, and gases under different conditions. Essentially, the particle theory helps us understand the behavior of matter at a microscopic level.


How do you describe the dissolving process as a result of random molecular motion?

In the dissolving process, the solute particles break apart and disperse into the solvent due to the random motion of molecules. This motion causes collisions between solute and solvent molecules, leading to a gradual mixing at the molecular level until the solute is evenly distributed throughout the solvent.


Is salt dissolving in water a physical or chemical change?

Physical (not chemical) changesNaCl(s) → Na+(aq) + Cl-(aq)Added:These are NOT chemical changes. In solid NaCl there are already Na+ and Cl- ions present in the (fully ionic)crystallic matrix. These ions are only separated by the water molecules. This is exactly what is called: 'dissolving'


What 4 examples of physical change?

Melting of ice into water. Dissolving sugar in water. Crumpling a piece of paper. Breaking a glass bottle.


In physical change matter cannot change its shape true or false?

False. In a physical change, matter can change its shape without changing its chemical composition. Examples include melting, freezing, and dissolving.
