8th-States of Matter

Quiz yourself by thinking what should be in each of the black spaces below before clicking on it to display the answer.
        Help!  

Term
Definition
solid   state of matter where particles are arranged in a tight, regular pattern and move very little  
🗑
liquid   state of matter with a fixed volume but not a fixed shape; particles can move past each other easily  
🗑
gas   state of matter that has no fixed shape or volume; particles move rapidly and there are large spaces between them  
🗑
boiling   vaporization that occurs throughout a liquid  
🗑
boiling point   the temperature at which a liquid changes to a gas  
🗑
condensation   the change of matter from a gas to a liquid state  
🗑
deposition   the change of matter from a gas to a solid without a liquid state  
🗑
evaporation   vaporization of matter at the surface of a liquid  
🗑
freezing point   the temperature at which a liquid changes to a solid  
🗑
melting point   the temperature at which a solid changes to a liquid  
🗑
boiling point   the temperature at which a liquid changes to a gas  
🗑
plasma   hot, ionized gases that exist at extremely high energies (temperatures); the atoms of plasma lose their electrons  
🗑
ion   atom or molecule with an electric charge  
🗑
absolute zero   the temperature at which all molecules stop moving  
🗑
temperature   the average kinetic energy of the individual particles of a substance  
🗑
matter   anything that takes up space and has mass  
🗑
sublimation   the change of state from solid to gas without a liquid state  
🗑
energy   the ability to do work or cause change  
🗑
condensates   state of matter that occurs as super low temperatures (almost absolute zero) and "blob" together to create one "super atom"  
🗑
matter   anything that has mass, takes up space, and exhibits the property of inertia  
🗑


   

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.
