Richard Harwood and Ian Lodge Solutions for Chapter: The Nature of Matter, Exercise 1: Exercise 2.1

The graph shows the heating curve for a pure substance. The temperature rises with time as the substance is heated.

What happens to the temperature while the substance is changing state?

The graph shows the heating curve for a pure substance. The temperature rises with time as the substance is heated.

The substance is not water. How do we know from this graph?

The kinetic model states that the _____ in a liquid and a _____ are in constant motion. In a gas, the particles are far apart from each other and their motion is said to be _____. The particles in a solid are held in fixed positions in a regular _____. In a solid, The particles can only _____ about their fixed positions.

Liquids and gases are fluid states. When particles move in a fluid they can collide with each other. When they collide, they bounce of each other in _____ directions. If two gases are liquids are mixed, the different type of particle _____ out and mixed up. This process is called _____.

At the same _____ particles that have lower mass move faster than those with higher mass. This means that the lighter particles spread and mix more quickly; the lighter particles are said to _____ faster than the heavier particles.
