| State of matter | the physical forms of matter,which include solid,liquid, and gas |
| Solid | the state of matter in which the volume and shape are fixed |
| Liquid | A form of matter that does not have definite volume or shape |
| Gas | form of matter that does not have a volume or shape |
| Melting point | the temperature at which a solid changes to a liquid |
| Vaporization | process in which a liquid changes to a liquid |
| Boiling point | the temperature at which a liquid vaporizes and changes to a gas |
| Condensation | the change of state from a gas to a liquid |
| Freezing point | the 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 | is the state of matter that forms when temperatures are enough to completely remove electrons from the atoms to which they were bound |
