Last Name _________________ First Name___________ Due Date _______ Period_____ Kinetic Molecular Theory Worksheet Use the following terms to fill in the blanks. Some may be uses more than once. Hopefully all will be included but you never know. If you seem to need an additional term (oops!) just do your best Gas Solid Liquid Phase Compress Empty Space Kinetic Energy Bonds Structure Collisions Anomaly Random Motion Temperature Absolute Zero density Fluids Compressible Incompressible. A B C The boxes above represent matter in the 3 common phases. Write the name of the phase next to the appropriate letter. 1. The word kinetic comes from a Greek word that means “to move.” The kinetic molecular theory is based upon the assumption that atoms are in constant Random Motion 2. State the names of the phases in order of Temperature, Kinetic Energy, density and bond strength between atoms Lowest Temperatures In between Temperatures Highest Temperatures Solid Liquid Gas Lowest Kinetic Energy In between Kinetic Energy Highest Kinetic Energy Solid Liquid Gas Lowest Density Highest Density Gas High Strength Bonds Weak Bonds No Bonds Solid Liquid Gas 3. Kinetic Energy is directly related to temperature. As the temperature increases so does the Kinetic Energy. 4. Compared to Solids and Liquids gases tend to have a lower density. This can be explained by the fact that there is so much Empty Space between particles in a gas. 5. A small pressure will easily compress a gas. If this happens its density will increase. The space between the atoms will (INCREASE or DECREASE). 6. Even a large pressure will not compress a solid because the atoms are so closely packed. 7. Solids have strong Bonds, liquids have weaker Bonds and gases have no Bonds holding them together. 8. A solid like ice or diamond has a highly ordered arrangement of bonds between atoms which is called its Structure. A liquid or gas does not have this. A SOLID B LIQUID C GAS
