57 views6 pages

Document Summary

Intermolecular forces are the forces that hold many liquids and solids together. The state of a sample of matter solid, liquid, or gas depends on magnitude of intermolecular forces between the constituent particles relative to amount of thermal energy. Recall that the molecules and atoms composing matter are in constant random motion that increases with increasing temperature. The energy associated with this motion is called thermal energy. When thermal energy is high relative to intermolecular forces, matter tends to be gaseous. When thermal energy is low relate to intermolecular forces matters tend to be liquid or solid. 11. 2 solids, liquids, & gases a molecular comparison: The densities of solid and liquid states are much greater than the density of the gas state. The solid and liquid states are more similar in density and molar volume to one another than they are to the gas state.
