Science Final Part 1
molecules // expansion and contraction // phase changes // measuring temperature
| Answer | |
|---|---|
| What is rigidity? | The inability to be forced or bent out of shape. |
| What is fluidity? | The ability of a substance to flow easily. |
| Density is marked by... | The compactness or crowding together of particles. |
| What is motion? | When objects change position over time. |
| How do particles in solids move? | - They never stop moving - The atoms don't touch each other - they attract and repel each other, a.k.a. the "dance of the molecules" |
| How close are particles in solids? | They are extremely close, yet do not touch each other. These particles form a lattice structure to keep themselves together. |
| What shape to liquids have? | Liquids have no shape of their own. They take the shape of whatever container they are in. |
| What happens to the particles in liquids when they are heated up? | The particles get warmer. The warmer they get, the faster they move around. |
| Once fast enough, what happens to the particles in liquids? | Their attractive force breaks and the particles are able to move freely, slipping and sliding past each other. |
| What causes evaporation? | When the particles get warmer, they speed up, causing water molecules to leave the system. |
| What happens as gas particles cool down? | They slow down, causing their forces of attraction to take place. |
| The change from gas to liquid is called: | Condensation [particles get more "dense"] |
| What happens when gas particles get hot? | They move faster, pushing against their container and making it bigger [this is called "expansion"]. |
| If warm particles mean expansion, cold particles mean: | Contraction |
| How much space do warm and cold molecules take up? | Warm molecules take up more space, cold molecules take up less space. |
| What are phase changes? | Adding or removing energy from matter [heating or cooling] causing it to change states |
| Can the human body tell the temperature of something? | No, it can only tell the difference between temperatures. |
| How was the Celsius temperature scale created? | Anders Celsius used a tube of mercury to make the scale. The mercury contracts at 0°C, and expands to its boiling point at 100°C. |
| How do gas particles move? | Gas particles are in constant motion, moving in straight lines until they collide into something. |
| How would one describe the collision of gas particles? | The particles experience "elastic collision," which means they don't slow down. |
| What is the pressure of a gas related to? | The pressure of a gas is related to the frequency and force of the collisions of the gas particles with the sides of their container. |
| What is the speed of gas particles related to? | The speed of gas particles is related to their temperature. |
| Do gas particles stick to other particles? | No. |
