What to Focus On

  • A molecule is nearly 10^-10 m in size.
  • Heat is the internal energy of a substance.
  • Temperature depends on average kinetic energy of molecules.
  • Melting is solid to liquid.
  • Boiling is liquid to vapour at a fixed temperature.
  • Sublimation is solid directly to vapour.
  • Evaporation happens only at the surface.
  • Boiling happens throughout the liquid.
  • Evaporation occurs at all temperatures.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

Evaporation and boiling are the same process.

Boiling happens only at the surface, just like evaporation.

Water always boils at 100°C in every situation.

Memory Tips

A molecule is extremely small and cannot be seen even by a microscope

Heat is internal energy of a substance

Temperature and molecular motion

Absolute zero and molecular motion
