• Liquids and Vapours
• Specific Heat Capacity
• Latent Heat
Moving Particles
Solid
• Has fixed shape and volume.
• Its particles are held closely together by
strong forces of attraction (bonds). They
vibrate backwards and forwards but cannot
change position
Moving Particles
Liquid
• Has fixed volume but can flow to fill any shape.
• The particles are close together and attract each
other. But they vibrate so vigorously that the
attractions cannot hold them in fixed positions,
and they can move past each other
Moving Particles
Gas
• Has no fixed shape or volume and quickly fills
any space available.
• Its particles are well spaced out, and virtually
free of any attractions. They move about at
high speed, colliding with each other and the
walls of their container.
Moving Particles
What are the particles?
• Elements is made from about 100 simple
substances
• Atom is the smallest possible amount of an
element
• Molecules is groups of atoms
Moving Particles
Energy of particles
• The particles in solids, liquids, and gases have:
• kinetic energy because they are moving (energy because of motion
• Potential energy because their motion keeps them separated and opposes
the bonds trying to pull them together. Gas have the most potential energy
because they are furthest apart.
• Internal energy = kinetic energy + potential energy
• The hotter a material is, the faster its particles move, and the more internal
energy it has
• Heat
• Thermal energy = internal energy or heat

Temperature
A temperature scale is a range of numbers for
measuring the level of hotness. Most of the times
we use Celcius degree to measure the level of
temperature.
Temperature
Objects at the same temperature have the
same average kinetic energy per particle.
The higher the temperature, the greater the
average kinetic energy per particle.
Pressure law:
The pressure of a fixed mass of gas is directly proportional to its
absolute temperature if the volume is kept consant.

Thermal Expansion – Gas
Worked example
A bicycle pump contains 50cm3 of air at 170C and at 1 atm. Find the
pressure when the air is compressed to 10cm3 and its temperature
rises to 270C.
Answer
5.2 atm

Heat Transfers
• Conduction
• Convection
• Radiation
Liquid & Vapors
• Evaporation
• Condensation
Specific Heat Capacity
When alcohol is burnt, its energy would be
transferred to the surrounding. We can
calculate the amount of heat transferred by
the alcohol to the surrounding, by using:
𝑞 = 𝑚𝑐∆𝑇
𝑞 is heat transferred (J)
𝑚 is mass (kg)
𝑐 is specific heat capacity (J/kg0C or J/kg K)
∆𝑇 is temperature change (in 0C or in K)
Specific Heat Capacity
A water with the mass of 2 kg cools from
700C to 200C. If the specific heat capacity of
the water is 4200 J/kg0C. Calculate the total
of energy lost by water!
Answer
𝑞 = 2 × 4200 × (20 − 70)
𝑞 = 8400 × (−50)
𝑞 = −420 000 𝐽 (negative sign indicate that
water is loses its heat or energy)
Specific Heat Capacity
Specific heat capacity of several things:
Specific Heat Capacity
Thermal capacity (heat capacity):
It is the amount of energy (J) needed to
increase 10C of compound or mixture.
𝐶 =𝑚×𝑐
𝐶 is thermal capacity (J/0C)
𝑚 is mass
𝑐 is specific heat capacity
Specific Heat Capacity
Thermal capacity (heat capacity):
From the previous question
With the mass of 2 kg water, it means that:
𝐽
𝐶 = 2 𝑘𝑔 × 4200 0 = 8400 𝐽/0 𝐶
𝑘𝑔 𝐶
Or it means that it is needed 8400 J of
energy to increase 10C of water
Specific Heat Capacity
When alcohol is burnt, its energy is
transferred to water above it through heat.
If it is assumed that all heat is absorbed fully
by the water, we can calculate the amount
of heat transferred from the burning
alcohol.
Example
Specific Heat Capacity
𝑞𝑎𝑙𝑐𝑜ℎ𝑜𝑙 = −(𝑚𝑤𝑎𝑡𝑒𝑟 × 𝑐𝑤𝑎𝑡𝑒𝑟 × ∆𝑇𝑤𝑎𝑡𝑒𝑟 )
Example
So,
𝑃 × 𝑡 = 𝑚𝑐∆𝑇
𝑃 is power (Watt or J/s)
𝑡 is time (s)

Latent Heat
Water can be a solid (ice), a liquid, or a gas called water vapour (or steam).
There are its three phases, or states.
If the liquid goes back to solid, it means that the energy is released.
Latent Heat
Latent heat of fusion:
Ice has a specific latent heat of fusion of 330 000 J/kg. It means that in
order to change each kilogram of ice, it needed 330 000 J.
