Unit 3: Gas Laws and States of Matter
Guiding Questions:
- Why do substances boil or freeze at different temperatures?
- Why does sweating cool us?
What you should learn:
- The motion of molecules and atoms explains energy transfer and changes in volume and pressure.
- Physical properties can be explained and predicted by intermolecular interactions
- The amount of energy required to induce a physical change can be quantified.
- Intermolecular forces determine the relative amount of energy required for physical changes
- When energy is absorbed by a system, another system has lost an equivalent amount of energy (Law of conservation of energy).
