Question
Answer
altitude   vertical distance, or elevation, above sea level  
🗑
boil   change from a liquid to a gas  
🗑
Boiling Point   the temperature at which boiling occurs. At sea level, the boiling point of water is 100 degree C (212 F) Water boils at lower temperatures at higher altitude because air pressure is lower there.  
🗑
Freeze   change from a liquid to a solid  
🗑
Freezing point   the temperature at which freezing occurs. At sea level, the freezing point of water is 0 degrees C (32 F)  
🗑
Gas   gas a phase in which matter has no definite shape or volume  
🗑
Gas Properties   will expand to fill any container ; can be compressed; molecules relatively far apart and move freely.  
🗑
Water Vapor   water in the gas phase  
🗑
Liquid   a phase in which matter has definite volume but no definite shape  
🗑
Liquid properties   will take the shape of a container but cannot expand or be compressed; molecules in a liquid move randomly but stay close to one another.  
🗑
melt   change from a solid to a liquid  
🗑
Melting point   the temperature at which melting occurs. At sea level, the melting point of ice is 0 degrees C (32 F)  
🗑
Phase   a state of matter with certain physical properties. Solid, liquid and gas phases occur naturally on Earth. Plasma is a phase found in stars.  
🗑
Solid   a phase in which matter has a definite shape and a definite volume.  
🗑
Solid properties   will retain the same shape and volume in any container; atoms are held in a rigid structure and cannot move freely.  
🗑
Ice   water in the solid phase  
🗑
Thermal Energy   Energy in the form of heat  
🗑
Vaporization   rapid change from liquid to gas  
🗑
Condensation   change from gas to liquid  
🗑
Sublimation   change from solid to gas  
🗑
Evaporation   slow change from liquid to gas  
🗑
Deposition   change from gas to solid  
🗑


   

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.
