Describe Solids.
|
1. Definate shape
2. Definate volume 3. particles packed tightly together and stay in a FIXED POSITION |
|
Name some types of solids?
|
Crystalline solids
Amorphous solids |
|
What are crystaline solids like?
|
Made up of crystals, that have a definite melting point
|
|
What are amorphous solids?
|
Do not have a specific melting point, particles are not arrange in a regular pattern
|
|
Describe liquids?
|
NO definate shape
DEFINATE VOLUME particles are free to move |
|
What is viscosity?
|
resistance to flowing
|
|
Describe GASES.
|
Changes volume easily
Takes up the shape of the spce it occupies Will fill ALL SPACE AVAILABLE |
|
What is the amount of space that matter fills called?
|
VOLUME
|
|
What is the measure of the AVERAGE ENERGY OF MOTION of the particles of a substance.
|
TEMPERATURE
|
|
What is pressure?
|
the force of the outward push divided by the area of the wall of the container.
|
|
Which law related pressure and volume?
|
Boyle's Law
|
|
What did Boyles law state?
|
When the pressure of a gas is increased at constant temperature, the volume of the gas decreases
|
|
What does the law that relates pressure to temperatuare say?
|
When the temperature of a gas of a constant volume is INCREASED, the pressure of the gas INCREASES
|
|
What is the law that relates to pressure and temperature called?
|
Raising Temperature Raises Pressure
|
|
Which law relates volume and temperature?
|
Charles' Law
|
|
What does Chareles Law state?
|
when the temperature of a gas increases at constant pressure , its volume increases
|
|
What do we call diagrams that tell how two varibles, or factors are related?
|
GRAPHS
|
|
What does the graph of Charles's Law show?
|
that the volume of gas is "Directly proportional" to its Kelvin temperature.
|
|
What does the graph of Boyle's Law show?
|
that the pressure of gas "Varies Inversely" with its volume at constant temperature.
|
|
What is the energy that the particles of substance have,that are transferred from one substance to another as heat
|
THERMAL ENERGY
|
|
In thermal energy, how does the energy flow?
|
warmer to cooler
|
|
What are the changes between solid and liquid?
|
Melting-from solid to liquid
Freezing -from liquid to solid |
|
What are the changes between liquid and gas?
|
Vaporization
Evaporation Boiling |
|
What happens during vaporization
|
Changes in a state from liquid to gas
|
|
What happens during evaporation?
|
Molecules escape into the air from the surface of the liquid
|
|
What happens doing the boiling state?
|
Inside a liquid as well as on the surface a type of vaporiztion takes place
|
|
What is the boiling point?
|
the specific temperatuare at which a substance boils
|
|
How does air pressure effect boiling point?
|
The lower the air pressure, the less energy required for molecules to escapte into the air.
|
|
What is condensation?
|
THE OPPOSITE OF VAPORIZATION; CHANGE IN STATE FROM GAS TO LIQUID
|
|
What is SUBLIMATION?
|
A CHANGE DIRECTLY FROM A SOLID TO A GAS.
|
|
HOW DO YOU IDENTIFY SOME SUBSTANCES?
|
through changes of state such as : melting point, boiling point, vapor point, etc. They ARE DISTINCt FOR SUBSTANCEs
