"MATTERS IN OUR SURROUNDING"

   "BASIC CONCEPTS"           

  • Anything that occupies space and has mass and is felt by sense is called matter.
  • According to indian ancient philosopher, matter is the form of five basic elements (the Panchtatva) - air, earth, fire, sky and water.
Characteristics of particles of matter

  • Made up of tiny particles.
  • Vacant spaces exist between particles.
  • Particles are in continuous motion.
  • Particles are held together by forces of attraction.
States of Matter

Basis of Classification of Types 

  • Based upon particle arrangement.
  • Based upon energy of particles.
  • Based upon distance between particles.
Five states of matter

  1. Solid 
  2. Liquid
  3. Gas 
  4. Plasma
  5. Bose-Einstein Condensate (BEC)


(Ⅰ) 
SOLID

  • Fixed mass, volume and shape.
  • Inter-particle distances are least.
  • Incompressible.
  • High density and do not diffuse.
  • Inter particle forces of attraction are strongest.
  • Constituent particles are very closely packed.
(Ⅱ) LIQUID

  • Not fixed shape but fixed volume and mass.
  • Inter particle distances are larger than solid.
  • Almost incompressible.
  • Density is lower than solids and can diffuse.
  • Inter particle forces of attraction are weaker than solids.
  • Constituent particles are less closely packed.

(Ⅲ) GAS


  • Neither fixed shape nor fixed volume.
  • Inter particle distances are largest.
  • High compressible.
  • Density is least and diffuse.
  • Inter particle force of attraction are weakest.
  • Constituent particles are free to move about.

(Ⅳ) PLASMA (NON-EVALUATIVE)

  • A plasma is an ionized gas.
  • A plasma is a very good conductor of electricity and is affected by magnetic fields.
  • Plasma, like gases have an indefinite shape and an indefinite volume. Example:-  Ionized gas
(Ⅴ) BOSE-EINSTEIN CONDENSATE (NON-EVALUATIVE)

  • A BEC is a state of matter that can arise at very low temperatures.
  • The scientists who worked with the Bose-Einstein condensate received a Noble Prize for their work in 1995.
  • The BEC is all about molecules that are really close to each other (even closer than atoms in a solid).
Microscopic Explanation for Properties of Solids

  • Solids have a definite shape and a definite volume because volume because the particles are locked into place.
  • Solids do not flow easily because the particles cannot move/slide past one another.
  • Solids are not easily compressible because there is little free between particles.
Microscopic Explanation for Properties of Liquids

  • Liquid are not easily compressible and have a definite volume because there is little free space between particles.
  • Liquids flow easily because the particles can move/slide past one another.
Microscopic Explanation for Properties of Gases

  • Gases are easily compressible because there is a great deal of free space between particles.
  • Gases flow very easily because the particles randomly move past one another.
  • Gases have an indefinite shape and an indefinite volume because the particles can move past one another (non-evaluative)
Microscopic Explanation for Properties of Plasmas

  • Plasmas have an indefinite shape and indefinite volume because the particles can move past one another. 
  • Plasmas are easily compressible because there is a great deal of free space between particles.
  • Plasmas are good conductors of electricity & are affected by magnetic fields because they are composed of lens.
Microscopic Explanation for Properties of BEC
  • Particles are less energetic than solids because exist at very low temperature.
  • Particles are literally indistinguishable because they are locked into same space.
  • BEC shows super fluidity because Particles can flow without friction.


1) 
INTERCHANGE IN STATES OF MATTER

Water can exits in three states of matter:-
  • Solid, as ice,
  • Liquid, as the familiar water, and 
  • Gas, as water vapour.
2) SUBLIMATION:- The changing of solid directly into vapours on heating & vapours into solid on cooling. Examples:-  Ammonium chloride, camphor & iodine.

(a) Effect of change in temperature :- 

The temperature effect on heating a solid varies depending on the nature of the solid & the conditions required in bringing the change.
  • On increasing the temperature of solids, kinetic energy of the particles increases which overcomes the force of attraction between the particles  thereby solid melts and is converted to a liquid.
  • The temperature at which a solid melts to become a liquid at the atmospheric pressure is called its melting point.
  • The melting point of ice is 273.16 K.
  • The process of melting, that is, change of solid state into liquid state is also known as fusion.
(b) Effect of change in Pressure :-
  • Increasing or decreasing the pressure can change the state of matter. Appling pressure and reducing temperature can liquefy gases.
  • Solid carbon dioxide is stored under high pressure. Solid carbon dioxide gets converted directly to gaseous state on decrease of pressure to 1 atmosphere without coming into liquid state. This is the reason that solid carbon dioxide is also known as dry ice.

3) LATENT HEAT :-  

The hidden heat which breaks the force of attraction between the molecules during change of state.

FUSION :-  Heat energy required to change 1kg of solid to liquid.

VAPORISATION :- Heat energy required to change 1kg of liquid to gas at atmospheric pressure at boiling point.

Thus, we can say that pressure and temperature determine the state of a substance, whether it will be solid, liquid or gas.

4) EVAPORATION & BOILING :- 
  • Particles of matters are always moving and are never at rest.
  • At a given temperature in any gas, liquid or solid, there are particles with different amounts of kinetic energy.
  • In the case of liquids, a small fraction of particles at the surface, having higher kinetic energy, is able to break away from the force of attraction of other particles and gets converted into vapour.
  • This phenomenon of change of a liquid into vapours at any temperature below its boiling point is called evaporation.
Factors affecting evaporation :-
  • The rate of evaporation increases with an increases of surface area.
  • With the increase of temperature, more number of particles gets enough kinetic energy to go into vapour state.
  • Humidity is the amount of water vapour present in air. The air round us cannot hold more than a definite amount of water vapour at a given temperature. If the amount of water in air is already high, the rate of evaporation decreases.
  • Wind speed :- The higher the wind speed, the more evaporation.  
Evaporation causes cooling :-
  • The particles of liquid absorb energy from the surrounding to regain the energy lost during evaporation.
Evaporation Vs Boiling :-
  • Boiling is a bulk phenomenon. Particles from the bulk (whole) of the liquid change into vapour state.
  • Evaporation is a surface phenomenon. Particles from the surface gain enough energy to overcome the force of attraction present in the liquid and change into the vapour state.

(5) KELVINE & CELSIUS SCALE :- 
  • Kelvin is the SI unit of temperature, 0℃ = 273.16K we take 0℃ = 273K.
  • SI unit of temperature is Kelvin. T(K) = T(℃) + 273.
  • Kelvin scale of temperature has always positive sign, hence regarded as better scale than Celsius.
  • Atmosphere (atm) is a unit of measuring pressure exerted by a gas. The SI unit of pressure is Pascal (Pa).
  • 1 atmosphere = 1.01 × (10 to the power 5) Pa. The pressure of air in atmosphere is called atmospheric pressure. The atmospheric pressure at sea level is 1 atmosphere, and is taken as the normal atmospheric pressure.
