Question 1:

What are the characteristics of particles in solids?

Answer 1:
Particles in solids are closely packed and tightly bound to each other,
resulting in a fixed volume and shape. They constantly vibrate but do
not move freely.
Question 2:

How do particles in liquids behave compared to those in solids?

Answer 2:

Particles in liquids are still close together but can slip by one another
easily, allowing liquids to flow and not have a fixed shape.
Question 3:

What is the behavior of particles in gases?

Answer 3:
Particles in gases are relatively free from each other and move rapidly
and randomly, causing the gas to fill its container, thus having no fixed
shape or volume and being compressible.
Question 4:

What is diffusion?

Answer 4:

Diffusion is the spontaneous spreading out of a substance due to the


natural movement of its particles.
Question 5:

What is Boyle's Law?

Answer 5:

Boyle's Law states that for a fixed mass of gas at a fixed temperature,
the pressure of the gas is inversely proportional to its volume.
Question 6:

What does Charles' Law state?

Answer 6:
Charles' Law states that at constant pressure, the volume of a fixed
mass of gas is directly proportional to its temperature on the Kelvin
scale.
Question 7:

What is Avogadro's Law?

Answer 7:
Avogadro's Law states that equal volumes of gases contain equal
numbers of molecules under the same conditions of temperature and
pressure.
Question 8:

What is Avogadro's Constant?

Answer 8:

Avogadro's Constant (L) is the number 6 x 10^23, which is the number


of particles contained in one mole of any substance.
Question 9:

What are the assumptions of the Kinetic Theory of Gases?

Answer 9:
The assumptions include that a gas is made up of particles with
negligible diameters compared to the distances between them, no
attractive or repulsive forces between particles, constant rapid random
motion, the average kinetic energy is proportional to temperature on
the Kelvin scale, and all collisions are perfectly elastic.
Question 10:

What distinguishes ideal gases from real gases?

Answer 10:
Ideal gases perfectly obey all gas laws under all conditions of
temperature and pressure, while real gases deviate from ideal behavior
at low temperatures and high pressures due to particle size and
intermolecular forces.
