States of Matter

Unit Review

QuestionAnswer
What are the 3 parts of the kinetic theory of matter? 1 - matter is composed of small particles 2 - particles are in constant random motion 3 - particles are colliding with each other and walls of their container
no definite shape, but has definite volume liquid
definite shape, definite volume solid
no definite shape or volume gas
particles slide past one another liquid
particles move freely gas
particles are held tightly together solid
high energy matter consisting of positively and negatively charged particles plasma
particles arranged in repeated geometric patterns solid
most common state of matter in the universe plasma
solid -> liquid melting
liquid -> solid freezing
liquid -> gas evaporation
gas -> liquid condensation
solid -> gas sublimation
gas -> solid deposition
List 3 endothermic phase changes liquid -> solid gas -> liquid gas -> solid
What is the opposite of endothermic change? What happens to the particles? List 3 phase changes in which this occurs. 1 - exothermic change 2- they absorb energy from surroundings, gain kinetic energy, speed up, and lose attractiveness to one another 3 - liquid -> solid gas -> liquid gas -> solid
How is a substance's melting point different from its heat of fusion? A substances
Particles of all states of matter move faster and separate as temperature rises, resulting in an increase in size of the entire object. Thermal expansion
An object will ______ if it's weight is greater than the buoyant force on the object. sink
An object _____ if the buoyant force pushing up on it is less than the weight of the object. sink
An object will _____ if it is less dense than the liquid it's placed in. float
__________ _________ states that the buoyant force on an object equals the weight of the fluid displaced by the object. Archimedes Principle
_______ _________ states that the pressure applied to a fluid is exerted throughout the fluid. Give 2 examples of this: 1 - Pascal's Principle 2 - toothpaste, car jack
What is the SI unit for pressure? pascal
What causes atmospheric pressure all around us? collisions of gas particles in the air
What law states that as velocity of a gas or liquid increases, pressure decreases? Bernoulli’s Principle
Explain how planes fly. Because of the shape of the wing, air moves quicker over the top. Greater Velocity = less collisions of particles = lower pressure
What is Boyle’s Law? As you decrease the volume of a gas, the pressure of the gas increases (volume) (pressure) (inverse proportion) (temp is held constant)
What law states that volume of a GAS increases with an increasing temperature? Charles Law (volume) (temperature) (direct proportion) (pressure is held constant)
Describe why boats float despite their large masses. The shape of the hull increases the overall volume, which decreases the overall density

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.
