Draw a sketch showing the effect of heat on the inter-particle spacing and physical states of matter.

Open in App

Solution

Inter-particle space — The inter-molecular space between two nearest particles is considered an inter-molecular space.
When the heat is provided to the substance its Inter-particle space increases.
Inter-particle space is maximum in gas while minimum in solid.
Inter-particle space is inversely proportional to the inter-particle force.
A diagram that shows the effect of heat on the inter-particle spacing and physical states of matter.
