| liquid | is the state of matter in which a materiel has a definite volume but not a definite shape. |
| gas | is the state of matter in which a material has not definite shape and no definite volume. |
| kinetic energy | is the energy due to motion. |
| phase change | is the reversible physical change that occurs when a substance changes from one state of matter to another. |
| endothermic | the system absorbed energy from its surroundings. |
| exothermic | it releases its energy from its surroundings. |
| heat fusion | the amount of energy absorbed in a substance. |
| vaporization | The phase change in which a substance changes from a liquid to gas. |
| evaporation | is the process that changes a substance from liquid to a gas temperature below boiling point |
| heat of vaporization | One gram of water gains 2261 joules of energy when it vaporizes. |
| vapor pressure | The pressure caused by the collision of this vapor and the walls of its container. |
| condensation | is the phase change in which a substance changes from gas or vapor to liquid. |
| sublimation | is the phase change in which a substance changes from solid to gas. |
