WS 1.1 Exercise

1. The document contains 10 multiple choice questions about states of matter and phase changes. The questions cover topics like the arrangement and movement of particles in different states of matter, processes like boiling, evaporation, and condensation, and diagrams representing the states of matter. 2. The theory section discusses kinetic molecular theory and uses diagrams of heating curves to explain phase changes and the physical states of substances at different temperatures. It asks about the movement and arrangement of molecules in different states, what causes pressure in a gas, and identifying equilibrium, physical states, and purity from heating curve diagrams. 3. In summary, the document tests understanding of kinetic molecular theory, the physical properties of the different states of matter, and

Theory

1. (E) Kinetic theory explains the properties of matter in terms of the arrangement and
movement of particles.

(a) Nitrogen is a gas at room temperature. Nitrogen molecules, N2, are spread
far apart and move in a random manner at high speed.

(i) Compare the movement and arrangement of the molecules in solid


nitrogen to those in nitrogen gas. [3]

(b) A sealed container contains nitrogen gas. The pressure of the gas is due to
the molecules of the gas hitting the walls of the container.
Use the kinetic theory to explain why the pressure inside the container
increases when the temperature is increased. [2]

measured every minute and the results are represented on the graph.
