1 Phases of Matter

2 Kinetic Theory All matter is made of atoms and molecules that act like tiny particles. These tiny particles are always in motion. The higher the temp., the faster the particles move. At the same temp., more massive (heavier) particles move slower than less massive (lighter) particles

3 SOLIDS Definite shape? YES Definite volume?
Molecules in a solid are tightly packed and constantly vibrating

4 LIQUIDS Definite shape? NO Definite volume? YES
Some liquids flow more easily than others. The resistance of a liquid to flow is called viscosity. Honey has a high viscosity compared to water

5 GASES Definite shape? NO Definite volume?
The particles in a gas are spread very far apart, but can be compressed by pumping them into a restricted volume.

6 Phase Changes Changes in phase are examples of physical changes.
Melting: solid  liquid Freezing: liquid  solid Vaporization: liquid  gas Condensation: gas  liquid Sublimation: solid  gas

7 Changes of State SOLID GAS LIQUID Melting Vaporization Condensation
Deposition Sublimation Vaporization Condensation Melting Freezing LIQUID

8 Energy Transfers ENERGY is the ability to change or move matter.
Energy is ABSORBED when substances melt or evaporate. NOTE: our bodies cool down when our sweat evaporates. Energy is RELEASED when substances freeze or condense.

9 Melting The change of state from solid to liquid.
Energy (heat) is absorbed by the substance that is melting.

10 Freezing The change of state from liquid to solid. Opposite of melting. Energy (heat) is released by the substance undergoing freezing.

11 Evaporation The change of state at the surface of a liquid as it passes to a vapor. This results from the random motion of molecules that occasionally escape from the liquid surface. Energy (heat) is released by the liquid (Cooling of the liquid results) Can happen at any temperature

12 Condensation The change of state from gas to liquid. The opposite of evaporation. Energy (heat) is absorbed by the liquid (Warming of the liquid results)

13 Boiling Change from state from a liquid to a gas.
Occurs throughout the liquid. boiling point/temperature is determined by pressure Energy (heat) is released by the liquid.

14 Boiling Point Gas Liquid Melting Point Solid

15 Phase Change Graph

16 Water at normal pressure (1 atm):
For water at normal (every day) pressures: Melting/freezing point: Condensing/boiling point: 0 oC (32oF) 100 oC (212oF) Label the points & temperatures on your graph.

17 Change the pressure  Change the Boiling Point

18 Phase Diagrams a phase diagram shows the equilibria pressure-temperature relationship among the different phases of a given substance

22 C vapor pressure curve melting curve sublimation curve AD = AB = AC =

23 A D triple point = Point ______
C A triple point = Point ______ The point at which all 3 phases of a substance (solid, liquid, gas) can coexist at equilibrium. D critical point = Point ______ The combination of critical temperature and critical pressure. critical temp = temp. above which a gas cannot be liquefied. (H2O=374ºC) critical pressure = press. required to liquefy a gas at its critical temperature. (H2O=218 atm)
