What are the 3 states of Matter?

Solid, Liquid, and Gas 

100

What are the 3 types of thermal energy?

Conduction, Convection, Radiation

100

Which of the following is NOT a phase change? 

Melting, Evaporation, Dissolving, Condensation

Dissolving: This is a process where a substance (solute) is dispersed within another substance (solvent) to form a solution. It's a change in mixture, not a change in phase. lving

In which direction does heat move?

Hot to cold

If I have a 4 Beakers that have the same mass of 5 kg, but each has different temperatures. Which beaker has more thermal energy?

The beaker that has the highest temperature 

200

Which of the following is NOT a state of matter? Solid, Liquid, Gas, Temperature

Temperature

200

As the temperature of a material increase, the average ____ of its particles increases.

Kinetic Energy (speed)

200

What is the inverse of condensation?

Evaporation

What is an insulator?

An insulator is a material that does not easily conduct heat or electricity.

200

What are the 6 phase changes ?

Freezing, Melting, Evaporation, Condensation, Sublimation, Deposition. 

300

Which of the following best describes the particles in a gas? 

A. Tightly packed and move randomly

B. Loosely packed and move randomly

C. Tightly packed and vibrate in place

D. Tightly packed and move in straight line. 

B. Loosely packed and move randomly 

300

What is not a method of heat transfer?

Insulator

Condensation is the process of a gas turning into a liquid. True or False

True

If I am holding a hot cup, in which was is the heat being transferred?

Heat is transferred directly from the hot cup to your hand through contact. From the cup to my hands.

300

What is the definition of energy?

The ability to do work.

400

What state of matter takes up the shape of a cup?

Liquid 

400

Which has more thermal energy? A 5kg bowling ball was resting on hot driveway for 4 hours on a day when it was 35 degree C or the same bowling ball rolling down the lane in an air-conditioned bowling alley?

The 5kg bowing ball resting on the hot driveway

400

Which phase change requires the addition of heat? Freezing, Melting, Condensation, Deposition

Melting

400
What is the definition of heat?

Heat is the transfer of thermal energy from a hotter temperature to a cooler temperature 

400
What is happening to temperature when a phase change is taking place?
Temperature is NOT changing. 
500

Which best describes why a liquid needs a container when a solid does not?
A. Solids fill their containers, and liquids have definite shapes.
B. Solids have definite shapes, and liquids fill their containers.
C. Solids particles do not expand to fill their containers, and liquid particles do.
D. Solids particles expand to fill their containers, and liquid particles do not.

B. Solids have definite shapes, and liquids fill their containers.

What are the definitions of Conduction, Convection, and Radiation?

  • Conduction: This is the transfer of heat through direct contact. It occurs when objects or particles touch.    

  • Convection: This is the transfer of heat through a fluid (liquid or gas) by the movement of the fluid itself. Warmer, less dense portions rise, while cooler, denser portions sink, creating circular currents.    

  • Radiation: This is the transfer of heat through electromagnetic waves. It can happen through empty space and doesn't require a medium (like a liquid or gas).

500

What is the process called when a solid turns directly to a gas? Sublimation, Deposition, Condensation, Evaporation.

Sublimation: This is the process where a solid changes directly into a gas without passing through the liquid state. 

500

The transfer of heat in liquids or gases through circular like movement of particles is known as: Conduction, radiation, convection

Convection- This is the transfer of heat through a fluid (liquid or gas) by the movement of the fluid itself. Warmer, less dense portions rise, while cooler, denser portions sink, creating circular currents. This is the primary way heat is transferred in liquids and gases.
