Describe the differences between translational, rotational and vibrational motion, and how each type of motion relates to particles in solids, liquids and gases.

Use kinetic theory to explain why liquids cool when they evaporate.
Use kinetic theory to explain why some chemical reactions need to have their reactants heated before they can begin.
Use kinetic theory to explain why the rate of a reaction increases when the solid reagents have been ground up finely.
Use kinetic theory to explain why the cells of active living organisms contain a high percentage of water.
Use kinetic theory to explain why when two gases are brought together, they mix more quickly than two liquids?
Use kinetic theory to explain why gas molecules with low mass move at greater average velocities than molecules with high mass, at the same temperature.
