| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| Solid | Has a definite volume and a definite shape |
| Liquid | Has no shape of its own It takes shape of the container |
| Gas | Can change volume Volume of container |
| Crystalline solids | Solids that are made up of crystals |
| Amorphous solids | Solids are not arranged in regular pattern |
| Fluid | Particles are free to move around This substance flows |
| Viscosity | The resistance of a flowing liquid |
| Temperature | The measure of the average energy of motion of the particles of substance |
| Pressure | The force of its outward push divided by the area of the walls of its container Measured in (kPa) Kilo pascals |
| Boyle's law | Found that when pressure of gas is increased the volume of gas decreases vis-a-versa |
| Charles's law | Found when temp. of gas increased it's volume increases vis-a-versa |
| Graphs | Diagrams that tell how two variables are related |
| Directly proportional | Linear |
| Vary inversely | Non Linear |
| Thermal Energy | Energy from a movement of particles |
| Chemical Energy | |
| Law of Conservation of energy | In every physical change and chemical change,the total amount of energy stays the same |
| Melting | The change of state to a solid to a liquid |
| Freezing | The change of state from a liquid to a solid |
| Vaporization | Occurs when a liquid gains enough energy to become a gas |
| Evaporation | When vaporization takes place only on the surface of a liquid |
| Boiling | When vaporization takes place inside a liquid as well as at the surface |
| Condensation | Occurs when a gas loses enough thermal energy to become a liquid |
| Sublimation | Occurs when the surface particle of a solid gain enough energy to become a gas |
| Chemical Reaction | Another name for a chemical change |
