Liquids & Intermolecular Forces
Odyssey includes a series of 13 experiments on liquids and intermolecular theory:
The Molecular Characteristics of a Liquid
The Molecular Characteristics of a Liquid
Introduces liquids taking the student through a series of demonstrations showing the molecular behaviour in liquid particles.
The Molecular Characteristics of a Solid
Illustrates the fundamental elements of the structure of solids.
Molecular Motion in Gases, Liquids, and Solids
Demonstrates how the molecular motion differs between gases, liquids, and solids.
The Energies of Gases, Liquids, and Solids
Describes how, whether a substance is found in the solid, liquid, or gaseous state, depends on the balance between the kinetic energy of motion of the individual molecules and the attractive energy that is associated with the interactions between the molecules.
Intermolecular Forces
Introduces intermolecular forces between molecules, showing the different kinds of intermolecular forces.
Ion-Dipole Forces
Describes ion-dipole forces as intermolecular forces with an interactive experiment.
Hydrogen Bonding
Shows hydrogen bonding as a special type of intermolecular interaction between polar molecules.
Liquid Water
Illustrates how water exhibits a lot of physical properties that are highly unusual for a liquid relating to hydrogen bonding within water.
Ice
Examines the stucture of ice showing that the solid has a lower density than the liquid in contrast to most other substances.
The Melting Transition
Focuses on the transition between liquid state to solid state.
