Phases of Matter

Quiz yourself by thinking what should be in each of the black spaces below before clicking on it to display the answer.
        Help!  

Question
Answer
Phase of matter   the form in which particles are arranged and move  
🗑
boiling point   the temperature at which a substance changes from a liquid to a gas  
🗑
melting point   the temperature at which a substance changes from a solid to a liquid  
🗑
A solid has ...   a definite shape and takes up a definite amount of space  
🗑
A solid's particles are...   closely packed together and have some energy, and move back and forth but do not change places  
🗑
A liquid...   does not have a definite shape but takes up a definite amount of space  
🗑
A liquid's particles are...   not held in place but are able to slide past one another  
🗑
A liquid takes the shape...   of the container  
🗑
gases are...   invisible and do not have a definite shape  
🗑
Gas takes the shape   of the container and expands to fill whatever space is available  
🗑
Gas particles are...   very far apart from one another and move in all directions  
🗑
in the gas state, water is called...   water vapor  
🗑
gas does not take up a definite amount of...   space  
🗑
Energy can cause the particles in a substance to move   faster and farther apart.  
🗑
Substances change phase (state or form) when enough heat is   added or taken away.  
🗑
Phase changes are examples of physical changes that can be reversed by   adding or removing energy.  
🗑
Every substance changes phases at a different...   temperature  
🗑
The melting point and boiling point of a substance are both physical properties that help   identify the substance.  
🗑
The temperature at which a substance melts is the same temperature at which it freezes, or changes from a   solid to a liquid.  
🗑
The temperature at which a substance changes from a liquid to a gas is also the temperature at which the substance changes from a   gas back into a liquid.  
🗑
Substances have different melting and boiling points that are much different from   the melting and boiling points of water.  
🗑


   

Review the information in the table. When you are ready to quiz yourself you can hide individual columns or the entire table. Then you can click on the empty cells to reveal the answer. Try to recall what will be displayed before clicking the empty cell.
 
To hide a column, click on the column name.
 
To hide the entire table, click on the "Hide All" button.
 
You may also shuffle the rows of the table by clicking on the "Shuffle" button.
 
Or sort by any of the columns using the down arrow next to any column heading.
If you know all the data on any row, you can temporarily remove it by tapping the trash can to the right of the row.
