A SONG The particle model

1. All substances are made up of particles (atoms,


ions or molecules).

2. These particles are attracted to each other, some


strongly and others weakly.

3. These particles move around (i.e. have kinetic


energy).

4. The kinetic energy of particles increases with


temperature.
Temperature and energy
What is evaporation?

Evaporation occurs when the particles in a


liquid escape to form a vapour.
Evaporation can occur at any temperature
but it occurs most rapidly at a liquid’s boiling
point.
The particles that escape take some energy
from the remaining particles and so the
temperature of the liquid falls.
