Question
Answer
What are the the properties of a liquid?   The properties of a liquid are that it has a definite volume, but no definite shape.  
🗑
How are the properties of a solid and gas different?   The properties of gas are the complete opposite of the properties of a solid. Gas has no definite shape or no definite volume, while a solid has both definite shape and volume.  
🗑
What type of energy is moving?   Kinetic energy.  
🗑
What is the result of force distributed over an area?   Pressure.  
🗑
What does absolute zero mean?   Absolute zero is the temperature of 0K. Nobody has ever been able to produce a temperature of absolute zero.  
🗑
Which law states that the volume of a gas is directly proportioned to its temperature in kelvins if the pressure and the number of particles of the gas are constant?   The law is Charles's Law.  
🗑
What is Boyle's Law?   Boyle's Law states that the volume of a gas is inversely proportional to its pressure if the temperature and the number of particles are constant .  
🗑
What is the reversible physical change that occurs when a substance changes from one state of matter to another.   Phase change  
🗑
How do endothermic and exothermic compare and contrast?   Endothermic is when energy is absorbed, while exothermic is when energy is released.  
🗑
What is heat of fusion?   Heat of fusion is the energy required to change a gram of a substance from the solid to the liquid state without changing its temperature.  
🗑
What is the phase change when a substance changes from a liquid to a gas?   The phase change is called vaporization.  
🗑
How is heat of vaporization similar to heat of fusion?   They are both the energy required to create a phase change per gram without changing the temperature, but heat of vaporization is the conversion of liquid into a gas.  
🗑
What is the process of evaporation?   Evaporation is the process that changes a substance from a liquid to a gas below the substances boiling point.  
🗑
What is the pressure exerted by water vapor in the atmosphere?   Vapor pressure  
🗑
What is condensation, and what is an example of it?   Condensation is the process that changes a gas into a liquid. An example is dew.  
🗑
What is the difference between sublimation and deposition?   Sublimation is the phase change in which a solid transforms directly into a gas without passing through the liquid phase while deposition is when a gas transforms directly into a solid without passing through the liquid phase.  
🗑
