Practice Test 2
Do equal volumes of different materials have the same mass? If not, which
material had the greater mass per unit volume? How did you figure this out
from the data table?
How is mass different from volume? What does each measure?
Are these ratios the same? How close do the values need to be for you to
consider them as the same value? Why might the values be different?
Do liquid particles undergo fewer collisions or more collisions than
particles of gases? What is your reasoning?
We would expect them to undergo more collisions than particles of gases. If they are closer to
one another, they have to travel less distance before colliding with another particle.
Do solid particles move? If so, describe how the motion of particles in
solids is different from the motion of particles in liquids and gases. If
not, describe what you observe.
Yes, solid particles are moving constantly but they are not mobile like particles of liquids and
gases. Particles of solids wiggle or vibrate in place.
Would you describe forces between water particles as attractive or
repulsive?
For a given material, how would you rank the average kinetic energy of the
particles in the gas, liquid, and solid states?
For a given material: Ave KE solid < Ave KE liquid < Ave KE gas. (Note: these three states occur at
different temperatures.)
Complete the explanation:
You place a pot of water on the stove and set the knob to “high” (about 175 °C).
Eventually, the temperature of the water remains constant at 100 °C and the
water boils. Why?
In this explanation, consider what is happening to water particles in the liquid
configuration at 100 ºC.

True
False
At lower temperatures
a. molecules in a substance move faster than at higher temperatures.
