Are the particles of a solid or liquid more attracted to each other?
In a solid, the particles are very attracted to each other. They are close together and vibrate in position but don’t move past one another. In a liquid, the particles are attracted to each other but not as much as they are in a solid.
How are liquid particles attracted to each other?
Like the particles of a solid, particles in a liquid are subject to intermolecular attraction; however, liquid particles have more space between them, so they are not fixed in position. The attraction between the particles in a liquid keeps the volume of the liquid constant.
Do you think the attractions between particles in the solid are weaker or stronger than the attractions between particles in the liquid *?
The intermolecular forces between particles determine the state of a substance. In a solid, the intermolecular forces are very strong and hold the particles together. In a liquid, the intermolecular forces are weaker and in a gas, the particles no longer experience intermolecular forces.
How does the attraction between the particles of a liquid relate to the temperature?
Liquids evaporate faster as they heat up and more particles have enough energy to break away. The particles need energy to overcome the attractions between them. As the liquid gets warmer more particles have sufficient energy to escape from the liquid.
Which liquid has the strongest attraction between particles?
Water has the strongest intermolecular forces (hydrogen bonds) of all the substances used.
How strong the particles in a fluid attract to another substance?
Explanation: The greater the inter molecular forces in a substance the greater the attraction the molecules of the substance have for other molecules. Because the molecules in liquid A have a greater attraction for each other the molecules in liquid A will “stick” together more than the molecules in liquid B.
How do attractions between particles in a fluid determine viscosity?
Viscosity is due to particle mass, particle shape, and the strength of the attraction between the particles of a liquid. In general, the stronger the attractive forces between particles, the higher the viscosity. For many liquids, viscosity decreases when heat is applied.
What has the strongest attraction between particles?
solids
Due to the solid’s low kinetic energy, particles have no “time” to move around, the particles have more “time” to be attracted. Therefore, solids have the strongest intramolecular forces (because they have the strongest attraction).
What is the force of attraction in liquid?
In a liquid, intermolecular attractive forces hold the molecules in contact, although they still have sufficient KE to move past each other. Intermolecular attractive forces, collectively referred to as van der Waals forces, are responsible for the behavior of liquids and solids and are electrostatic in nature.
Why does liquid a have a higher viscosity than liquid B?
The particles in Liquid A have a stronger attraction to each other than the particles in Liquid B. If both liquids are at the same temperature, which liquid has a higher viscosity? Explain. Liquid A has a higher viscosity. This is because the viscosity results from the strength of attraction between the particles of the Liquid.
Why are particles in liquid a stronger than in liquid B?
The particles in liquid A have a stronger attraction to each other than the particles in liquid B. lf both liquids are at the same temperature, which liquid has a higher viscosity? The greater the inter molecular forces in a substance the greater the attraction the molecules of the substance have for other molecules.
How are liquid particles different from solid particles?
The particles that form a liquid are relatively close together, but not as close together as the particles in the corresponding solid. The particles in a liquid have more kinetic energy than the particles in the corresponding solid.
Why do particles in liquid a stick together?
Because the molecules in liquid A have a greater attraction for each other the molecules in liquid A will “stick” together more than the molecules in liquid B.
