Energy and Molecular Order Changes: Phase Changes We now take a closer look at how substances change phase. It is important to remember that phase change depends on the nature of the substance and on the temperature and pressure of its environment. It involves gain/absorption of heat by the substance from the environment (endothermic) or loss/release of heat by the substance to the environment exothermic). The different processes associated with the phase changes and the accompanying energy changes are shown in the following diagram: Heat Energy Absorption) Kinetic Energy Increase Section Objectives At the end of this section you should be able to describe the nature of the solid-ligald, oquid- vapor, and sold-vapor phase changes in terms of energy changes and increase or decrease in molecular order and 2 define the terms associated with phase changes Sublimation Fusion (melting) Vaporization (Bolling) Solidification (Freezing) Condensation vie) Deposition Heat Energy Release/Ginetie Energy Decrease Figure 41. Diagram of Energy Changes Legend: 1. Terms on the arrows are processes that refer to the changes. 2. An arrow indicates the direction of phase change (e.g. from solid to gas) Exercise: Study the diagram in Figure 4.1 and determine the relationships indicated by the words and arrows. 8. Answer the following questions. 1. What phase change happens in the process of: a) sublimation? to b) fusion? to c) vaporization? to 2. What happens to heat energy during the phase changes in number 1?
Section 2 Heating and Cooling Curves, Phase Diagrams Section Objectives At the end of the section you should be able to 1 explain the heating and cooling curves of substances, and 2 interpret and an Information from phase diagrams When the amount of heat energy added to a solid is plotted against the temperature changes as time progresses, a heating curve results and much information can be obtained from it. Let us learn from the heating curve shown below: 3502 300 200 Τεπιφαιρικό Ο 150 100 Liquid S Solid o free 20 10 80 80 100 120 140 100 100 200 Heutrurgy added
