• The kinetic molecular theory explains how particles move and has three major points:

• All matter is made of particles.

• Particles are in constant, random motion.

• Particles constantly collide with each other and with the walls of their container.

Kinetic Molecular Theory



Particles that make up all matter are in constant motion. On average, solid particles move slowest, liquid particles move faster, and gas particles move the fastest.

Kinetic Molecular Theory (cont.)

What are the three points of the kinetic molecular theory?



• The measure of the average kinetic energy of the particles in a material is temperature.

• When the particles that make up a material move slowly, they occupy less volume than they do at a higher temperature.

• Thermal expansion is the increase in volume of a material due to a temperature increase.




When water is cooled to near its freezing point, interactions between water molecules push the molecules apart.




• As the kinetic energy of the particles that make up a material increases, the thermal energy of the particles increases.

• As the kinetic energy of the particles that make up a material decreases, the thermal energy of the particles decreases.




When you put a warm bottle of water in a cold refrigerator, thermal energy is transferred.



• The movement of thermal energy from a region of higher temperature to a region of lower temperature is called heat.

• When the temperatures of materials that are in contact are the same, the materials are said to be in thermal equilibrium.





equilibrium

from Latin aequus, means “equal”; and libra, means “a balance or scale”



• Conduction is the transfer of thermal energy by collisions between particles in matter.

• Radiation is the transfer of thermal energy by electromagnetic waves.

• Convection is the transfer of thermal energy by the movement of the particles from one part of a material to another.

Heat Transfer



Conduction, radiation, and convection are ways in which thermal energy is transferred.



Heat Transfer (cont.)

In what three ways is thermal energy transferred?



• Melting is the change of state from a solid to a liquid.

• Freezing is the change of state from a liquid to a solid.

Heat and Changes of State



• Vaporization is the change of state from a liquid to a gas.

• Vaporization that occurs within a liquid is called boiling.

• Vaporization that occurs at the surface of a liquid is called evaporation.

Heat and Changes of State (cont.)



• Sublimation is the change of state that occurs when a solid changes to a gas without passing through the liquid state.

• Deposition is the change of state from a gas directly to a solid without passing through the liquid state.

• Water vapor undergoes deposition when it freezes and forms frost.

Energy is involved in all physical processes; it is transferred when it moves from object to object without changing form. Energy is transformed when it is converted to another form. Energy is conserved during transfers and transformations.



• Potential energy is stored energy, and kinetic energy is energy of motion.

• Both mechanical energy and thermal energy involve kinetic energy and potential energy. Mechanical energy is the sum of the kinetic energy and the potential energy in a system of objects. Thermal energy is the sum of the kinetic energy and the potential energy in a system of particles.
