| Is an explanation of how particles in matter behave. | Kinetic Theory |
| Temperature at which a solid begins to liquefy. | Melting Point |
| Amount of energy required to change a substance from the solid phase to the liquid phase. | Heat of Fusion |
| The temperature at which the pressure of the vapor in the liquid is equal to the external pressure action on the surface of the liquid. | Boiling Point |
| The amount of energy required for the liquid at its boiling point to become a gas. | Heat of Vaporization |
| Spreading of particles throughout a narrow opening. | Diffusion |
| Matter consisting of positively and negatively charged particles. | Plasma |
| Increase in the size of a substance when the temperature is increased. | Thermal Expansion |
| Ability of a fluid- a liquid or a gas- to exert an upward force on an object immersed in the fluid. | Buoyancy |
| Amount of force exerted per unit area; SI unit is the pascal. | Pressure |
| A fluid's resistance to flow. | Viscosity |
| SI unit of pressure. | Pascal |
