Term
Definition
sublimation   an endothermic phase transition of a substance directly from the solid to the gas phase without passing through the intermediate liquid phase  
🗑
kinetic molecular theory   several rules that describe the behavior of gases/ The nature of gas molecules was examined by scientists, such as Robert Boyle and Jacques Charles, who outlined their observations in several laws that eventually became the Kinetic Molecular Theory.  
🗑
phase diagram   a diagram composed of equilibrium curves between different phases of the same substance  
🗑
molar enthalpy of fusion   the amount of energy needed to change one mole of a substance from the solid phase to the liquid phase at constant temperature and pressure  
🗑
STP   the abbreviation for Standard Temperature and Pressure. STP most commonly is used when performing calculations on gases, such as gas density. The standard temperature is 273 K (0° Celsius or 32° Fahrenheit) and the standard pressure is 1 atm pressure  
🗑
critical point   a point on a phase diagram at which both the liquid and gas phases of a substance have the same density, and are therefore indistinguishable  
🗑
deposition   a process where a gas changes phase and turns directly in solid without passing through the liquid phase. It's also the opposite of sublimation  
🗑
triple point   the temperature and pressure at which the solid, liquid, and vapor phases of a pure substance can coexist in equilibrium  
🗑
molar enthalpy of vaporization   the amount of energy needed to change one mole of a substance from the liquid phase to the gas phase at constant temperature and pressure  
🗑
nonvolatile   the tendency of a substance to vaporize. Volatility is directly related to a substance's vapor pressure  
🗑


   

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.
