The Heat/Cooling Curve of a Pure Substance
Description of the diagram
A A-B
The particles are closely packed together and can only vibrate at a fixed position. It stays solid anywhere below its meling point. B |
The particles in the solide are being heated and the heat enrgy is converted to kinetic enrgy. Thus the particles vibrate faster and move further apart. B-C |
Solid has begun melting but the temperature remains the same C |
At solid at its melting point. it is in both solid and liquid state. The temperature remins constant becuase it is used to over come forces between the particles C-D |
Turn to full liquid state. D |
Liquid is heated and molecules begans to move faster due to the kinetic energy in the increase of temperature D-E |
Molecules recieves enough energy to to overcome forces between particle. Some liquid molecules begin to change into gas E |
Evaporation begins. E-F |
Liquid has turn all into gas |
Temperature increases as heating continue.Gas particles are moving much fast do to much bigges space |
