Thermodynamics

TermDefinition
State of Matter Is one of the distinct forms in which matter can exist
Solid In this form the particles are tightly packed, vibrating in place, with little space between the particles for movement.
Liquid In this form the particles are packed together but have enough room to flow over one another.
Gas In this form the particles are not tightly packed, spaced apart, moving randomly in straight lines until they collide with another particle or the side of the container.
Solid In this form the thermal energy is low.
Liquid In this form the thermal energy is medium, not too high and not too low.
Gas In this form the thermal energy is at its highest.
Solid This form has definite shape and definite volume.
Liquid This form has no definite shape but does have a definite volume.
Gas This form has no definite shape and has no definite volume
Thermal Energy The energy contained within a system that is responsible for its temperature.
Kinetic Energy Is the energy an object has because of its motion.
Temperature Is the measure of the average kinetic energy of the particles in a a matter.
Matter Any material or substance that occupies space, and has mass.
Volume How much space matter takes up.
Fahrenheit Is a temperature scale used primarily in the USA.
Celsius Is a temperature scale use by scientist and most of the world except the USA.
Kelvin Is the temperature scale that is based off absolute zero and has no negative numbers.
Absolute Zero This is the moment when all molecular motion stops.
Freezing Point When matter changes from a liquid to a solid.
Melting Point When matter changes from a solid to a liquid.
Celsius Freezing Point 0 degrees
Celsius Melting Point 100 degrees
Fahrenheit Freezing Point 32 degrees
Fahrenheit Melting Point 212 degrees
Thermometer Is used to measure the average kinetic energy of a substance.

Use these flashcards to help memorize information. Look at the large card and try to recall what is on the other side. Then click the card to flip it. If you knew the answer, click the green Know box. Otherwise, click the red Don't know box.

When you've placed seven or more cards in the Don't know box, click "retry" to try those cards again.

If you've accidentally put the card in the wrong box, just click on the card to take it out of the box.

You can also use your keyboard to move the cards as follows:

If you are logged in to your account, this website will remember which cards you know and don't know so that they are in the same box the next time you log in.

When you need a break, try one of the other activities listed below the flashcards like Matching, Snowman, or Hungry Bug. Although it may feel like you're playing a game, your brain is still making more connections with the information to help you out.

To see how well you know the information, try the Quiz or Test activity.
