Solids, liquids & Gases

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
Kinetic-Molecular Theory   explains the behavior of gases, liquids and solids; can be explained by the process of condensation... biggest difference between gases and liquids is the distance between the particles  
🗑
Gases and Liquid   the two phases that can change positions with other particles  
🗑
Inter-molecular Forces   a force between particles are stronger in gases than in solids  
🗑
Vaporization   the process by which a liquid changes to a gas and the process by which a solid changes to a gas  
🗑
Evaporation   The process by which particles escape from the surface of a non boiling liquid and enter the gas state  
🗑
High Kinetic Energy   causes particles in a liquid to escape into a gas state  
🗑
A Solid   what forms when the average energy of a substance's particles decreases  
🗑
Triple Point   the point of a substance is the temperature and pressure conditions at which states of coexist at equilibrium  
🗑
Sublimation   the process of a substance changing from a solid to a vapor without passing through the liquid stage  
🗑
Fluidity   substance can flow and thus take the shape of the container  
🗑
Freezing   when kinetic energy drops too low, transitional motion is decreased and an orderly arrangement without flow occurs  
🗑
Molecular Covalent   common gases and liquids are all covalent  
🗑
Network Covalent   are all non metals, bonded infinitely in all direction, making one giant molecule  
🗑
Ionic   are made of metal cation and nonmetal anions in crystal arrangement; very strong bonds  
🗑
Metallic   are just metal ions with a sea of electrons flowing around them, often just one pure metal  
🗑
Critical Temperature   the highest temperature at which it is possible for the substance to exist, as a liquid  
🗑
Critical Pressure   the lowest amount of pressure you must apply to liquefy it at that temperature well below STP, it is referred to as "permanent gas"  
🗑
Iondon Dispirtion   found in all molecules, weakest temporary induced dipoles,  
🗑
Dipole Dipoles   stronger, between pos and neg ends of adjacent molecules, raises the boiling and melting point  
🗑


   

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.
