| Solid: closely packed particles cause matter to have a definite shape and definite volume. | closely packed particles cause matter to have a definite shape and definite volume. |
| Crystalline solids: particles form a regular repeating pattern called crystals. Example: salt, sugar, and snow | solids: particles form a regular repeating pattern called crystals. Example: salt, sugar, and snow |
| Liquid: particles are free to move so a liquid has a definite volume but no definite shape. | particles are free to move so a liquid has a definite volume but no definite shape. |
| Surface Tension: An inward force, or pull among the molecules in a liquid that brings the molecules on the surface closer together. | An inward force, or pull among the molecules in a liquid that brings the molecules on the surface closer together |
| Viscosity: A liquids’s resistance to flowing. Example: Honey has a high viscosity. | A liquids’s resistance to flowing. Example: Honey has a high viscosity. |
| Gas: particles are able to move and spread out filling all space available, thus gases has no definite shape or definite volume. | particles are able to move and spread out filling all space available, thus gases has no definite shape or definite volume. |
| Pressure: gas particles constantly collide with one another and the walls of their container. Pressure is the outward push divided by the area of the walls of the container. Pressure= Force/Area. | gas particles constantly collide with one another and the walls of their container. Pressure is the outward push divided by the area of the walls of the container. Pressure= Force/Area. |
| Temperature: | Temperature: the higher the temperature the faster particles moving. |
| Melting: When a solid changes to a liquid | When a solid changes to a liquid |
| Melting point: tMelting point: the temperature at which a substance melts. | tMelting point: the temperature at which a substance melts. |
| Freezing: | Freezing: When a liquid changes to a solid |
| Freezing point: | the temperature when a substance freezes. |
| Vaporization: | When a liquid changes to a gas |
| Evaporation: takes place only on the surface of the liquid. | takes place only on the surface of the liquid. |
| Boiling: When vaporization occurs both below the and at the surface. | When vaporization occurs both below the and at the surface. |
| Boiling Point: Temperature at which a liquid boils. | Temperature at which a liquid boils. |
| Condensation: When a gas changes to a liquid. | When a gas changes to a liquid. |
| Sublimation: When a substance changes straight from a solid to a gas. Example: Dry Ice | When a substance changes straight from a solid to a gas. Example: Dry Ice |
| Charles’s Law: When the temperature of a gas at a constant pressure is increased the volume is increased, if the temperature is decreased then the volume is decreased. | When the temperature of a gas at a constant pressure is increased the volume is increased, if the temperature is decreased then the volume is decreased. |
| Directly proportional: as one amount increases, another amount increases at the same rate. | as one amount increases, another amount increases at the same rate. |
| Boyles Law: Boyles Law: When the pressure of a gas at a constant temperature is increased the volume is decreases, if the temperature is decreased then the volume is increases. |
