In an isolated system, total energy is constant. As potential energy increases, kinetic energy will decrease. The kinetic energy decreases because the objects decelerate toward each other (the stronger repulsive force causes the velocity to decrease).

How would you explain the difference between an atom and an element?

very different properties ex melting pt, color, etc.

Where do bonds occur?

within a molecule

London Dispersion Forces

• Increase with size of particle (number of electrons) • Increase with surface area • Part of a range of intermolecular forces (between particles)

What happens when you add thermal energy (raise the temperature) to the helium atoms? Why?

• The kinetic energy of the atoms increases, they move faster, collide and/or vibrate with more energy. • Eventually they vibrate strongly enough (have enough kinetic energy) to overcome the attractive force between the two He atoms and they fly apart.

What is the relationship between thermal energy and temperature?

• Thermal energy is a measure of the average kinetic energy of the atoms. • Temperature T is directly related to average kinetic energy (1/2mv2).

Formation of covalent bonds

• When two H atoms approach - they are attracted much more strongly than two He atoms. • They form a covalent bond.
