Outline in gas particles, the qualitative relationship between the average kinetic energy and the temperature.
Important Questions on What Determines Chemical Changes?
Why, without stirring, does a dye gradually spread through a liquid?
During the diffusion of a dye in water, do you expect the coloured dye molecules to spontaneously regroup together in one part of the beaker after they have reached equilibrium?
Describe the differences between translational, rotational and vibrational motion, and how each type of motion relates to particles in solids, liquids and gases.
Describe the three states matter in order, from the state which has the least to the state which has the greatest entropy.
Use kinetic theory to explain why some chemical reactions need to have their reactants heated before they can begin.
How do the conditions of the environment affect chemical reactivity?
Why do changes in the total number of particles, but not necessarily the total number of atoms, determine the volume of a gas?
To what extent are physical and chemical changes linked?
