Question

how are particles of matter affected with increasing or reducing pressure on the matter at a different temperature

Open in App

Solution

At a particular temperature, on increasing the pressure, the particles of matter come closer to each other and the intermolecular force of attraction increases. On decreasing the pressure they occupy more volume and the particles are here and there, and they experience lesser force of attraction.

Q. Matter undergoes a change. The changes are of two types: Physical and chemical change.

A physical change is a change that involves only a change in the physical state of matter. Its chemical properties remain the same. Usually increasing the temperature or applying pressure or both bring about a physical change. On reversing the condition, that is reducing the temperature or reducing the pressure or both, the original state of matter is restored. In other words, physical changes are reversible.

A chemical change is a change that involves a change in the chemical composition of matter. A new substance is formed. In a chemical change, new chemical and physical properties of the substance are formed. In a chemical change, the chemical and physical properties of the substance formed will be different from the original substance.

In a chemical change, the properties that change are :

Q. Applying pressure increases the distance between the particles of matter.
