Describe be the movement of particles in solids,liquids,gases,and plasma
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| State of matter | the physical forms of matter which a solid solid,liquid,and gas |
| Solid | the sate of matter in which the volume and shape of a substance are fixed |
| Liquid | the state of matter that has a definite volume but not a definite shape |
| Melting point | the temperature at which a given solid will melt |
| Vaporization | in physics and chemistry the conversion of a solid or a liquid into gas |
| Boiling point | the temperature at which a liquid boils and turns to vapor |
| Condensation | the change of state from a gas to a liquid |
| Freezing point | temperature at which a liquid changes into a solid |
| Sublimation | the process in which a solid changes directly into a gas |
| Phase`change diagram | drawing that shows the relationships among temperature and changes of state |
| Plasma | a state of matter that forms when temperatures are high enough to completely remove electrons from the atoms to which they were bound |
