Heating and Cooling Curve of a Pure Substance













  • Solid-closely packed in an orderly manner-strong bonds, vibrates at a fixed position.
  • Heat energy converts to kinetic energy (K.E.) K.E. goes up, vibrate a little faster, temperature goes higher.
  • Solid to liquid-temperature remains constant because heat is used to overcome forces of attracton that hold the particles together-melting point-heat released is called latent heat of fusion.
  • Liquid (All solid has melted)
  • Temperature goes higher, particles move faster, K.E. up.
  • Some molecules start to move freely. Starts changing from liquid to gas.
  • Liquid to gas.Temperature stays same. Heat is used to overcome the forces of attraction that hold the particles together. Boiling point.
  • Particles move faster -Temperature increase as heating continues.




Gas Particles have high energy, move quickly.
Vaperization: KE down, particles are getting closer together.
Start to form intermolecular bonds
condensation begins
liquid satrts to form
Freezing; particles arranged in an ofdered manner. Freezing point.
Solid.


Liquid to solid: Freezing
Solid to liquid: Melting
Solid to gas: Sublimation
Gas to solid: Deposition
Liquid to gas: Vaperization
Gas to liquid: Condensation
