Kinetic Molecular

Model

Deocampo
The kinetic molecular model
explains the properties of solids
and liquids in terms of the
intermolecular forces of attraction
and the kinetic energy of the
individual particles.
 KINETIC MOLECULAR MODEL OF
SOLID
• Amorphous
Crystallized
• Ionic
• Molecular
• Group 8 A
 KINETIC MOLECULAR MODEL OF
LIQUID
• Surface Tension
• Viscosity
• Vapor Pressure
• Boiling Point
• Heat of Vaporization
 Intermolecular Forces

• Dipole-dipole
• Ion-dipole
• Hydrogen bonding
• London Dispersion
Intermolecular forces (attractive
forces between neighboring
particles of one or more
substances) pull the particles
together.
Dipole-dipole

Exist between polar molecules.

The strongest among the
intermolecular forces.
Ion- Dipole

Acts between an ion (negative or

positive charge) and a polar
molecule.
Hydrogen Bond

A special type of dipole- dipole

interaction exists only in
molecules that contain hydrogen
atom bonded to a small, highly
electronegativity atoms such as
N, O or F.
London Dispersion Forces

Or simply called as dispersion

forces, are intermolecular forces
of attraction that exist in all
atoms and molecules. The
weakest intermolecular forces.
 KINETIC MOLECULAR MODEL OF
LIQUID

• Surface Tension
• Viscosity
• Vapor Pressure
• Boiling Point
• Heat of Vaporization
Surface Tension

Is the property of a liquid to resist

external force and thus assume a
lesser surface area.
Viscosity

Is the resistance of liquid to flow.

Vapor Pressure

Is the pressure exerted it’s vapor

when equilibrium with its liquid or
solid.
Boiling Point

Is the temperature at which its

vapor pressure is equal to the
external or atmosphere pressure.
Heat of Vaporization

Is the amount of heat required to

vaporize one mole of substance at
its boiling point.
