Boiling point resources

Information on particle size and boiling point is provided for three alcohols. Students use this to place these substances in order of particle size and increasing boiling point.

The liquid range for four common substances has been provided. Students use this to answer questions about melting point, boiling point, and state.

Students use a table of information on melting points and boiling points of six different substances to answer questions about states of matter.

Students are provided with a graph of the heating curve for octane. Students use this to answer questions about state, temperatures, and changes of state.

Students draw a graph from some information they are given about the heating of meths in a water bath. Students then explain in terms of particles what is happening for the sloping section and the flat section of the graph.
