2.3 Due to the higher temperature outside:
Particles have higher average kinetic energy./Particles vibrate (move)
faster.
Forces of attraction (between molecules) become weaker.
Regular pattern (structure) breaks down./Phase change starts to occur.
Weens die hoër temperatuur buite:
Deeltjies het hoër gemiddelde kinetiese energie./Deeltjies vibreer vinniger.
Aantrekkingskragte (tussen molekule) word swakker.
Reëlmatige patroon (struktuur) word afgebreek. /Fasever-andering begin
plaasvind. (3)
[12]
QUESTION 3/VRAAG 3
3.1
3.1.1 54 °C (1)
3.1.2 93 °C (1)
3.2 No
Melting point is not 0 °C./Boiling point is below 100 °C.
Nee
Smeltpunt is nie 0 °C nie./Kookpunt is minder as 100 °C. (2)
3.3
3.3.1 Liquid and gas (2)
Vloeistof en gas
3.3.2 Solid/Vaste stof (1)
3.4 Remains constant.
Energy is used to break bonds during the phase change.
No energy available to increase kinetic energy of particles.
Bly konstant
Energie word gebruik om bindings te breek tydens die faseverandering.
Geen energie is beskikbaar om die kinetiese energie van deeltjies te verhoog
nie. (3)
