1 States of Matter Part 3

2 Liquids Kinetic-molecular theory can be applied to liquids Predicts that molecules of a liquid are in constant motion –Forces of attraction limit the range of movement so that the molecules remain in a fixed volume

3 Properties of liquids Density and compression –At 25°C and 1 atm of pressure, the density of a liquid is much greater than the density of a gas. –Because they are at the same temperature, the KE is the same –The intermolecular forces result in a greater density

4 Properties of liquids Fluidity –The ability to flow –Liquids and gases flow –Liquids diffuse much more slowly, because the intermolecular forces interfere –Liquids are less fluid than gases

5 Properties of liquids Viscosity –A measure of the resistance to flow –The stronger the intermolecular forces the higher the viscosity –The larger the molecule the higher the viscosity –Viscosity decreases with increasing temperature

6 Properties of liquids Surface tension –Measure of the inward pull by particles in the interior –The stronger the attraction of the particles, the greater the surface tension –Surfactants act to break the hydrogen bonds of water to decrease the surface tension

7 Properties of liquids Capillary Action –Occurs when adhesion is greater than cohesion –Cohesion Force of attraction between identical molecules –Adhesion Force of attraction between different molecules –Explains how plants get water up stems –Explains how paper towels absorb water

8 Solids According to Kinetic-molecular theory, solids have the same KE as liquids and gases at the same temperature Solids are therefore in constant motion Strong intermolecular forces limit the motion to vibrations Solids are not fluid and do not flow

9 Density of solids Most solids are more dense than their liquid Water is an exception

10 Crystalline Solids A solid whose atoms, ions or molecules are arranged in an orderly, geometric, three- dimensional structure Individual pieces are called crystals Five types of crystalline solids: –Atomic, molecular, covalent network, ionic and metallic –Shape is determined by the unit cell – smallest arrangement of connected points that can be repeated in three directions (see p400 for examples)

11 Amorphous Solids Solids that are not arranged in a repeating predictable pattern Not crystals Glass, rubber and many plastics

12 Practice 1.Explain how hydrogen bonds affect viscosity. How does a change in temperature affect viscosity? 2.What effect does soap have on the surface tension of water? 3.Explain why the surface of water in a graduated cylinder is curved. 4.Explain why water has a higher surface tension than benzene, which is non-polar.
