  • Chemistry - states of matter
    • three states of matter
      • liquid
        • Irregular arrangement, atoms are close. They move around each other
      • solid
        • Regular arrangement, atoms are very close. They vibrate in a fixed position
      • gas
        • Irregular arrangement, atoms are far. They move quickly in all direction
    • iinterconvers -ions  of matter
      • evaporation
      • freezing
      • condensation
      • boiling
      • sublimation
        • when a solid changes to a gas
          • there is no liquid for this process and only occurs on few substances such as iodine and solid carbon dioxide
            • the reverse of this called deposition
      • melting
    • Diffusion and Dilution
      • Diffusion in gasses
        • The air and bromine particles are moving randomly and there are large gaps between particles so they are easy to mix
      • Dilution
        • this. indicates that there are a lot of particles in a small amount of potassium manganate and therefore the particles must be very small
          • dilution is adding water ti a more concentrated substance until it has reached the desired concentration
      • Diffusion in liquis
        • the water and potassium manganate particles are moving randomly and they slide over each other. they can therefore easily mix.
          • Diffusion in liquids are slower than diffusion in gas because the particles in a liquid are closer
    • Solutions terminology
    • solubility and solubility curves
      • Solubility graphs or curves represent solubility in g per 100 g of water plotted against temp
      • To plot a solubility curve, the maximum mass of solvent that can be dissolved in 100 g of water before a saturated solution is formed, is determined at a series of different temps
      • Solubility is a measurement of how much of a substance will dissolve in a given volume of a liquid
        • The liquid is called the solventThe solubility of a gas depends on pressure and temp
        • Solubility of solids is affected by temperatureAs temperature increases, solids usually become more soluble
          • Solubility of gases is affected by temperature and pressure; in general:As pressure increases, gases become more solubleAs temperature increases, gases become less soluble
    • Practical
  • Prepare a two beakers, one as a hot water bath and one as an ice bath
    • Using a small measuring cylinder, measure out 4 cm3 of distilled water into a boiling tube.
      • On a balance weigh out 2.6 g of ammonium chloride and add it to the boiling tube
        • Place the boiling tube into the hot water bath and stir until the solid dissolves
          • Transfer the boiling tube to the ice bath and allow it to cool while stirring
            • Note the temperature at which crystals first appear and record it in a table of results
              • Add 1 cm3 of distilled water then warm the solution again to dissolve the crystals
                • Repeat the cooling process again noting the temperature at which crystals first appear.
                  • Continue the steps until a total of 10 cm3 of water has been added
