|---|---|
| The most energetic state of matter is ___ | Gas |
| The least energetic state of matter is ___ | Solid |
| State of matter with random, rapid motion independent of other parts | Gaseous State |
| State of matter with motion that slides past each other | Liquid State |
| State of matter with motion that vibrates around fixed positions | Solid State |
| The measure of the amount of disorder/randomness | Entropy |
| The quantity of heat that is absorbed to convert one gram of a solid to one gram of a liquid at the substances melting point | Heat of Fusion |
| What is the heat of fusion for water? | 80 Calories per gram |

| Law: When two or more elements combine, they always combine in a fixed or definite proportion by mass | Law of Definite Proportions |
| A mixture that has uniform composition throughout | Homogenous |
| A mixture that does not have uniform composition throughout | Heterogenous |
