Date: _____/_____/_____
and the Kinetic Molecular Theory
I. What is Matter?


__________ = anything that has _______ and ______ ___ _______ (has ________).

YES = ______, _______, _______, _______ etc.

NO = _____, _____, _________
SPS5. Students will compare and
contrast the phases of matter as they
relate to atomic and molecular
motion. a. Compare and contrast
the atomic/molecular motion of
solids, liquids, gases and plasmas.
chemistry = the study of ________ and ____ ___ ________.
II. The KMT and Phases
 _______ ________ Theory (KMT) = explains the ___________ of matter

All matter is made of atoms and molecules that act like ____ __________.

These tiny particles are _______ in ________. The _______ the __________, the
________ the particles ______.


At the ____ temp, more ________ particles move ______ than less massive particles.
There are three main ________ (states) of matter:
Phase
Structure
Distance btwn. Particles
Movement of Particles
Solid
Liquid
Gas
Plasma
____-_____. phase in which atoms ____ their ________ (ex: __________ bulb)
III. The KMT and Phases
 energy = the ability to _______ or ______ matter. Required
to change the ________ of matter from one to another.
 there are six different phase changes:
1. melting = change in phase from _____ to ______ (ex: __________________________)
2. evaporation = ______ to ____ (ex: __________________________________________)
3. sublimation = _____ directly to ____ (no ______) (ex: _________________________)
 the three phase changes listed above are ______________ because energy (in the _____ of
______) is ___________ into the substance ________ the change.
4. freezing =
______ to _____ (ex: ___________________________________________)
5. condensation = ____ to ________ (ex: _______________________________________)
6. deposition = ____ directly to ______ (no _____) (ex: ___________________________)
 the three phase changes listed above are ______________ because energy (in the form of
______) is ___________ from the substance ________ the change.
 just because energy is absorbed/released doesn’t mean the _______________ of a
substance ___________ during the phase change. In fact, it stays the ______!

4.
Choose 3 main colors:
 one color for the matter you will draw in the beakers
 another color for the exothermic phase change arrows
 and a last color for the endothermic phase change
arrows
5.
Label the arrows with the correct phase changes that take
place between the two phases represented in each pair of
beakers. Be careful—use the correct terms!
6.
Using about 30 ¼-inch circles, draw a picture representing
the arrangement of particles of matter of a solid the
beaker marked solid.
Color all the exothermic phase change arrows the same
color, including the key arrow under the title.
7.
Using about 30 ¼-inch circles, draw a picture representing
the arrangement of particles of matter of a liquid in the
beaker marked liquid.
Color all the endothermic phase change arrows the same
color, including the key arrow under the title (must be a
different color from the exothermic arrows).
8.
Write a description of each phase on the lines closest to
the beaker you are describing. Be brief, but detailed.
9.
Write your name, date, and period on the bottom of the
page in the area provided.
10.
Turn it in!
Using about 20 ¼-inch circles, draw a picture representing
the arrangement of particles of matter of a gas in the
beaker marked gas.
