Question
Answer
spontaneous mixing of the particles of two substances due to their random motion   diffusion  
🗑
process by which gas particles pass through a tiny opening   effusion  
🗑
collision between gas particles and container walls in which there is no net loss of kinetic energy   elastic collision  
🗑
substance that can flow and therefore take the shape of its container; a liquid or gas   fluid  
🗑
imaginary gas that perfectly fits all the assumptions of the kinetic-molecular theory   ideal gas  
🗑
based on the idea that the particles of matter are in constant motion   kinetic-molecular theory  
🗑
gas that does not behave completely according to the assumptions of the kinetic-molecular theory   real gas  
🗑
the attraction of the surface of a liquid to the surface of a solid   capillary action  
🗑
process by which particles escape from the surface of a nonboiling liquid and enter the gas state   evaporation  
🗑
physical change of a liquid to a solid by removal of heat   freezing  
🗑
force that tends to pull adjacent parts of a liquid's surface together, thereby decreasing surface area to the smallest possible size   surface tension  
🗑
process by which a liquid or solid changes to a gas   vaporization  
🗑
solid in which the particles are arranged randomly   amorphous  
🗑
substance in which the particles are arranged in an orderly, geometric, repeating pattern   crystal  
🗑
total three-dimensional arrangement of particles of a crystal   crystal structure  
🗑
solid made up of crystals   crystalline  
🗑
physical change of a solid to a liquid by the addition of heat   melting  
🗑
temperature at which a solid becomes a liquid   melting point  
🗑
substances that retain certain liquid properties even at temperatures at which they appear to be solid   supercooled liquids  
🗑
smallest portion of a crystal lattice that slows the three-dimensional pattern of the entire lattice   unit cell  
🗑
the conversion of a liquid to a vapor within the liquid as well as at its surface   boiling  
🗑
the temperature at which the equilibrium vapor pressure of the liquid equals the atmospheric pressure   boiling point  
🗑
the process by which a gas changes to a liquid   condensation  
🗑
indicates the critical pressure and critical temperature   critical point  
🗑
the lowest pressure at which the substance can exist as a liquid at the critical temperature   critical pressure  
🗑
temperature above which the substance cannot exist in the liquid state   critical temperature  
🗑
change of state of a gas directly to a solid   deposition  
🗑
dynamic condition in which two opposing changes occur at equal rates in a closed system   equilibrium  
🗑
the pressure exerted by a vapor in equilibrium with its corresponding liquid at a given temperature   equilibrium vapor pressure  
🗑
temperature at which a solid and liquid are in equilibrium at 1 atm of pressure   freezing point  
🗑
when a system at equilibrium is disturbed by application of a stress, it attains a new equilibrium position that minimizes the stress   LeChatlier's principle  
🗑
amount of heat energy required to melt one mole of solid at its melting point   molar enthalpy of fusion  
🗑
amount of heat energy needed to vaporize one mole of liquid at its boiling point   molar enthalpy of vaporization  
🗑
any part of a system that has uniform composition and properties   phase  
🗑
graph of pressure versus temperature that shows the conditions under which the phases of a substance exist   phase diagram  
🗑
change of state from a solid directly to a gas   sublimation  
🗑
indicates the temperature and pressure conditions at which the solid, liquid, and vapor of a substance can coexist at equilibrium   triple point  
🗑
liquids that evaporate readily   volatile  
🗑


   

Review the information in the table. When you are ready to quiz yourself you can hide individual columns or the entire table. Then you can click on the empty cells to reveal the answer. Try to recall what will be displayed before clicking the empty cell.
 
To hide a column, click on the column name.
 
To hide the entire table, click on the "Hide All" button.
 
You may also shuffle the rows of the table by clicking on the "Shuffle" button.
 
Or sort by any of the columns using the down arrow next to any column heading.
If you know all the data on any row, you can temporarily remove it by tapping the trash can to the right of the row.
