Physical changes

When a substance undergoes heating, it experiences a series of phase transitions. Initially, the substance is in the solid phase, where particles are closely packed and have limited movement.

Physical changes

as color goes from yellow to red, the temperature of the substance increases (with brown no increase)

an increase in both kinetic energy and potential energy

vibrational, rotational, and translational molecular movement

an increase in the average kinetic energy

vibrate AND rotate

moderately spaced out and have a moderate speed
larger amounts of heat

increase 1g of the substance by 1 degree celsius

totally overcome its intermolecular forces of attraction
start escaping into the gas phase

no increase in the average kinetic energy (temperature)

molar heat of fusion/vaporization equations can only be used

amount of heat required to undergo certain changes

added energy is stored as potential energy

an increase in the average kinetic energy (temperature)

the particles are vibrating faster

particles are closely packed together
a small amount of heat

raise 1g of the substance by 1 degree Celsius

starting to weaken its intermolecular forces

particles move very quickly

many collisions with each other

only a small amount of heat
to raise 1g of the substance by 1 degree Celsius

specific heat capacity
