a
Particles are held together by bonds in both liquids and solids, hence volume is
fixed. There are ‘no’ bonds between gas particles; hence they fill any container.
b
Particles are fixed in position in solids. They have rotational and vibrational
movement only. In liquids and gases, particles have translational movement, and
so shape can change.
c
In solids, particles are closer together than they are in the liquid. As liquification
occurs, the volume increases and hence density decreases.

REVIEW QUESTIONS
1
There were more philosophers than chemists. Their work was not experimentally based.
2
a
Large spaces between particles mean that gases can be compressed. Solids have
‘no’ spaces.
b
Forces between particles in the solid hold the substance to a fixed shape. Gas
particles have ‘no’ forces between them; they are free to move in all directions.
c
The particles in liquids and gases have translational motion, allowing these states
to flow. In solids, forces hold the particles in fixed positions.

Heat energy is used to weaken the bonds between particles. Heat energy is not
used to increase particle kinetic energy, and so no temperature rise occurs.
Any three of: colour change, evolution of a gas, precipitate formation, metal deposition,
temperature change.

Atomic theory
QUESTIONS
Examples include: gas collection, melting ionic material in a crucible, vacuum filtration.
2
Most elements are not present in pure form in nature and early chemists did not know
how to prepare them, nor were they able to tell if they were using an element or a
compound.
3
Sulfuric acid was the first strong acid isolated. It dissolved or reacted with many metals
and compounds that had previously been considered unreactive. Its reactions often
produced gases that had not previously been isolated.
4
In solids, particles are held in set formation. They rotate and vibrate only, and are fairly
close together. In liquids, the particles are no longer fixed in a set position. Gaseous
particles occupy the whole container, have low density and the particles are not
interacting.
5
carbon + oxygen → carbon dioxide
6
It led to the process of electrolysis, lamps, lighting, mechanical devices and furnaces.
7
a
2C(s) + O2(g) → 2CO2(g)
False: atoms contain subatomic particles.
ii
False: isotopes are different atoms of the same element.
iii
True.

i
Many gases exist as diatomic molecules; for example, nitrogen, hydrogen and
oxygen. Dalton did not know that he was reacting two atoms of these elements,
not one. His masses were sometimes out by a factor of two as a result.

a
A cathode-ray tube is a hollow glass tube connected to a vacuum pump. The gas
kept in it is therefore at low pressure. It has metal plates (electrodes) in the glass
tube and large voltages are passed between the electrodes.
b
i
The deflection of the electron was greater than that of a proton, a hydrogen
nucleus. Therefore the electron was smaller than the smallest atom.
ii
The electrons moved toward the positive electrode.
iii
The electron’s deflection was over 1800 times greater than that of the
proton.

a
The alpha particles were positive, therefore the nucleus was positive if some
particles rebounded.
b
The nucleus is very small and contains positive particles.
c
Many materials seem very hard and strong. It was not expected that the atoms
they are made of would be ‘hollow’.
