| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| Solid | the state of matter in wich materials have a definate shape and a definate volume |
| liguid | the state of matter in wich a materials has a definate volume and a definate shape |
| gas | is the state of matter in wich a material has neither a definate shape nor definate volume |
| kinetic energy | is the energy an object has due to its motion |
| phase change | is the reversable physical change that occurs when a substance changes from one state of matter to another |
| endothermic | the system absorbed energy from its surroundings |
| heat of fusion | the amount of energy absorbed in a substance |
| exothermic | it releases its energy from its surrounding |
| vaporization | the phase change in wich a substance changes from liquid to gas |
| heat of vaporization | one gram of water gains 2261 joules of energy when it vaporizes |
| evaporation | is the process that changes a substance from liguid to a gas temperature below boiling point |
| vapor pressure | the pressure caused by the collosion of this vapor and the walls of its container |
| condensation | is the phase change in wich a substance changes from gas or vapor to liquid |
| sublimation | is the phase change in wich a substance changes from solid to gas |
| deposition | when gas changes to solid without changing to liquid first |
