Properties of Liquids
Theory that explains particle motion in matter based on kinetic energy
Kinetic Molecular Theory
Weak attractive force between all atoms and molecules due to temporary dipoles
London dispersion force or Van der Waals
Solid with a highly ordered, repeating arrangement of particles
Crystalline solid
Change from solid to liquid
Melting
Graph showing phase changes of a substance
Phase diagram
State of matter where particles vibrate in fixed positions
Solid
Intermolecular force present between polar molecules
Dipole–dipole force
Smallest repeating unit of a crystal lattice
Unit cell
Change from liquid to gas
Vaporization
Point where all three phases coexist in equilibrium
Triple point
Attraction of water molecules or same molecules to each other
Cohesion
Strong intermolecular force involving hydrogen bonded to F, O, or N
Hydrogen bonding
Type of solid composed of molecules held by intermolecular forces
Molecular crystal
Change from solid to gas
Sublimation
Point where liquid and gas phases become indistinguishable
Critical point
Force that allows insects to walk on water
Kinetic energy
Attraction between an ion and a polar molecule
Ion–dipole force
Solid that lacks a regular, repeating structure
Amorphous solid
Change from gas to solid
Deposition
Is the energy (usually in kilojoules) required to melt 1 mole of a solid
Molar heat of fusion
Ability of water to dissolve many ionic and polar substances
Universal solvent
General term for forces acting between molecules
Intermolecular forces
Example of an amorphous solid commonly used in windows or kitchenwares
Glass
Heat absorbed during a phase change
Heat of fusion or heat of vaporization
A phenomenon that refers to a situation in which a liquid can be temporarily cooled to below its freezing point
Supercooling
