Document Summary

Chapter 11: states of matter; liquids and solids. Section 1 comparison of gases, liquids, and solids. Gases: compressible fluids, according to kinetic-molecular theory, gases are composed of molecules or single atoms that are in constant random motion throughout mostly empty space (unless the gas is highly compressed) Nearly negligible forces of interaction between molecules and the nearly negligible molecular size compared with the total volume of gas. Change of state (phase transition): a change of a substance from one state to another: phase: a homogeneous portion of a system. Section 2 phase transitions: melting (fusion): a change of a solid to the liquid state. H2o (s) h2o (l) (melting, fusion) Ice, snow: freezing: the change of liquid to the solid state. Liquid water ice: vaporization: the change of a solid or a liquid to the vapor. Liquid water water vapor: sublimation: the change of a solid directly to the vapor. H2o (s) h2o (g) water vapor.
