Particle theory and states of matter – Homework 1 CC1a.5
Name Class Date
1 Name the state of matter in which the particles:
a are close together and randomly arranged.
b are regularly arranged.
c have no attractive forces between them.
2 Describe what happens to the arrangement and movement of particles when a substance boils.
3 Explain why changes of state are physical changes.
4 The diagram shows the cooling curve for substance X.
Add the labels a, b, c or d to the graph to show:
a where the substance is freezing
b the melting point of the substance
c where the substance is in the liquid state and cooling down
d where the mean energy of the particles is highest.
5 Butane is a fuel. Its melting point is −140 °C and its boiling point is −1 °C.
Predict the state of butane at −150 °C and at 25 °C.
6 Bromine is in its liquid state at 25 °C. Explain what this tells you about its melting point and boiling point.
Particle theory and states of matter – Homework 2 CC1a.6
1 a Name the three states of matter.
b Name the physical change that occurs between each state of matter, and describe the changes that occur.
c Name the state of a substance in which the mean energy of its particles is generally lowest.
2 Describe the arrangements and movement of particles of:
a water in a swimming pool
b water in an ice cube
c the air around you.
3 Explain, in terms of attractive forces between particles, why:
a energy must be transferred from the surroundings to the particles during boiling
b energy is transferred to the surroundings from the particles during freezing.
4 The table shows some melting points and boiling points.
Substance Melting point (°C) Boiling point (°C)
ethanol −114 78
ammonia −78 −33
fluorine −220 −188
mercury −39 357
a Copy the table below, and complete it to show the state of each substance at the temperature shown.
Temperature (°C) ethanol ammonia fluorine mercury

−215
b Ethanol and mercury are both used in making thermometers. Scientists use ‘ultra-low’ freezers to store heat-sensitive substances at −40 °C to −85 °C. Explain which type of thermometer, ethanol or mercury, would be most suitable for use in these freezers.
5 Some students did an experiment using a substance with a melting point of 70 °C. They heated some of the substance in a boiling tube to 85 °C, and then allowed it to cool. They recorded its temperature every minute until it reached 55 °C.
a Sketch a cooling curve for this experiment.
b On your diagram, mark the starting and finishing temperatures, and also the melting point.
c Identify the parts of the curve that show the substance cooling in the solid state.
Extra challengeFreeze-drying is used to prepare dehydrated foods such as instant coffee, pot snacks and powdered soup mixes. The food is cooled to between −50 °C and −80 °C, and then exposed to a very low air pressure. Under these conditions, any water in the food sublimes.
6 Explain, in terms of the arrangement and movement of water particles, the attractive forces between them and energy transfers, why:
a the food is first cooled down
b water in the food sublimes
c some heating is needed for sublimation to continue.
