This is the process of a liquid turning into a solid.
Freezing
This is the variable that I am measuring.
The dependent variable
This state of matter is describing as having a definite shape and volume.

-3 degrees.
This term describes what happens when a liquid turns into a gas.
Evaporation
We use this acronym to represent the X axis.
MIX
This state of matter is described as having no fixed shape but a fixed volume.
Liquid
Gas has the least amount of kinetic energy.
False
This system does not exchange matter , only energy with its environment.
Closed system.
This term describes when a gas turns into a liquid.
Condensation
This is the variable we are testing.
The independent variable
This state of matter is described as having no fixed shape or volume.
Gas
If you remove energy from a liquid it will become a gas.
False, a solid.
This system exchanges both matter and energy with its environment.
Open system.
This describes a solid transitioning into a liquid.
We use this acronym to describe the Y axis
DRY
What is happening to the particles when you boil water?
The particles speed up and gain energy.
If you add energy to a solid it will become a liquid.
True.
This is the statement made that is testable , but not true / proven.
Claim.
This term is represented by tiny circular shape objects that we use to show the behavior of solids, liquids, and gases.
Particles.
This is the variable that describes what stays the same in the investigation.
The control variable.
What happens to the particles when you freeze liquid water into ice?
The particles slow down and lose energy.
An example of thermal equilibrium is when you take a hot pan off the stove and place it on the counter. A few minutes later you remove the pan from the countertop and it is warm.
True.
This system does not exchange anything with its environment.
Isolated system.
