Question

How is condensation explained by the Kinetic Molecular Theory? Cooling reduces particle motion, resulting in coalescence by attractive forces. Cooling increases collisions, which causes molecules to bond together. Heating breaks the solid bonds, and liquid forms. Reduction in molecular kinetic energy eventually produces the solid phase.

Answer 1

Answer: cooling reduces particle motion resulting in coalescence by attractive forces

Explanation:

Gases are made up of particles and these particles are always moving. The more kinetic energy, the faster will the particle move.

The process of condensation can be explained using Kinetic Molecular Theory :

when gases are removed from heat, the molecules move slowly and as a result the inter-molecular forces between them are strong enough that they can move particles closer together which forms droplets of liquid.

Answer 2

Temperature means, in this context, movement.

Condensation can be explained by the reduction of temperature of the system. This effect make possible the cohesion forces increases. In other words, the result is coalescence by attractive forces.
