IB Chemistry SL 1.1.2 Kinetic molecular theory
Practise explaining states and changes of state with kinetic molecular theory, using particle motion and intermolecular forces as evidence.
How this is tested
- explain liquid properties from particle motion, spacing and intermolecular attraction
- identify changes of state such as deposition from particle-level descriptions
- explain sharp volume increases on heating when boiling overcomes intermolecular forces
