| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| A state of matter that starts as a gas and then becomes ionized. | Plasma |
| Capacity to do work. | Energy |
| Kinetic energy of a substances atoms. | Thermal Enegery |
| Process in which a liquid changes directly into a gas. | Evaporation |
| Process in which a solid changes directly into a gas. | Sublimation |
| change of a substance from gas to a liquid. | Condensation |
| no solid state of matter in which the atoms or melcules are free to move past each other in gas or liquid. | Fluid |
| upward force exerted on an object immersed in or floating in a liquid. | Bouyant Force |
| the amount of force exerted per unit area of a surface. | Pressure |
| Principle that states that the bouyant force on an object is an upward force equal to the weight of the volume of fluid that the object displays. | Archimedes Principle |
| The SI unit of pressure. | Pascal |
| States that a fluid in equilibrium contained in a vessel exerts a pressure of equal intesity in all directions. | Pascal's Principle |
| resistance of a gass or liquid to flow. | Viscosity |
| States that for a fixed amount of gas at a constant temperature, the volume of the gas increases and the volume of the gas decreases as the pressure of the gas increases. | Boyle's Law |
| States that for a fixed amount of gas at a constant pressure, the voume of the gas increases as the temperature of the gas increases and the volume of the gas decreases as the temperature of the gas decreases. | Charle's Law |
| States that the pressure of a gas increases as the temperature increases if the volume of the gas does not change. | Gay-Lussac's law |
