Phase Changes That Require Energy:Melting, Vaporization, Sublimation

• Melting occurs when heat flows into a solid object.

•Heat is the transfer of energy from an object at a higher temperature to an object at a lower temperature.

Section 12-4

Phase Changes That Require Energy (cont.)

• When ice is heated, the temperature of ice will increase up until the ice reaches its melting point.

• At its melting point, the energy absorbed by the ice goes into breaking the hydrogen bonds that hold the water molecules together.

• When the bonds break, the particles move apart and ice melts into water. This process will continue until all the ice is melted.

• The melting point of a crystalline solid is the temperature at which the forces holding the crystal lattice together are broken and it becomes a liquid.

Section 12-4

Phase Changes That Require Energy (cont.)

• Particles with enough energy escape from the liquid and enter the gas phase.

Section 12-4

Phase Changes That Require Energy (cont.)

• Vaporization is the process by which a liquid changes to a gas or vapor.

• Evaporation is vaporization only at the surface of a liquid.

Boiling: vaporization that occurs throughout the liquid.

In an open container of water, all the molecules of water will eventually evaporate.

In a closed container, water vapor will collect over the liquid.

Section 12-4

Phase Changes That Require Energy (cont.)

• In a closed container, the pressure exerted by a vapor over a liquid is called vapor pressure.

Section 12-4

Phase Changes That Require Energy (cont.)

• The boiling point is the temperature at which the vapor pressure of a liquid equals the atmospheric pressure.

At this point, molecules throughout the liquid have the energy to vaporize.

Section 12-4

Phase Changes That Require Energy (cont.)

• Sublimation is the process by which a solid changes into a gas without becoming a liquid.

•What do you know that goes through sublimation?

Section 12-4

Phase Changes That Release Energy:

Freezing, Condensation, Deposition

• As heat flows from liquid water to the surroundings, the particles lose energy. As they lose energy, the molecules go back into their fixed positions. Freezing is the reverse of melting.

• The freezing point is the temperature at which a liquid is converted into a crystalline solid.

Section 12-4

Phase Changes That Release Energy (cont.)

• As water vapor loses energy, the velocity of the particles decreases. Water molecules bond, releasing energy as they do so.

• The process by which a gas or vapor becomes a liquid is called condensation

• Condensation is the reverse of evaporation.

• Deposition is the process by which a gas or vapor changes directly to a solid, and is the reverse of sublimation.

– Frost is an example of deposition.– Snowflakes are also formed in the upper

atmosphere by deposition of ice crystals.

Section 12-4

Phase Diagrams• A phase diagram is a graph of pressure

versus temperature that shows in which phase a substance will exist under different conditions of temperature and pressure.

Section 12-4

Phase Diagrams (cont.)

• The triple point is the point on a phase diagram that represents the temperature and pressure at which all three phases of a substance can coexist.

Section 12-4

Phase Diagrams (cont.)• The phase diagram for different

substances are different from water.

Heating Curve of a Liquid

Kinetic TheoryKinetic Theory

• This type of graph is called a heating curve because it shows the temperature change of water as thermal energy, or heat, is added.

• Notice the two areas on the graph where the temperature does not change.

• At 0°C, ice is melting.

• At 100°C, water vaporizes.

• Region (a) – part of curve where the solid is warming/cooling

• Region (b) – part of the curve where melting/freezing is occurring (temperature dose not change during a phase change)

• Region (c) – part of the curve where the liquid is warming/cooling

• Region (d) – part of the curve where vaporization/condensation is occurring (temperature dose not change during a phase change)

• Region (e) – part of the curve where the gas is warming/cooling

Section 15.1 Energy

• Define energy.

temperature: a measure of the average kinetic energy of the particles in a sample of matter

• Distinguish between potential and kinetic energy.

• Relate chemical potential energy to the heat lost or gained in chemical reactions.

• Calculate the amount of heat absorbed or released by a substance as its temperature changes.
