States of Matter Properties
What can liquids and gases do that solids can't do?
flow
How are the particles in a solid and a liquid similar?
They are close together.
What is viscosity?
Resistance to flow
What is surface tension?
A strong area at the top of a liquid.
What happens to a gas when it is heated?
It's volume increases
How are solids different from liquids and gases?
Their shape is not easily changes.
How are the particles in a solid and a liquid different?
The particles in a liquid have weaker attraction.
How does a liquid with high viscosity flow?
Slowly
What does surface tension do?
It makes things that can't float sit on top of a liquid.
What happens to a gas when it is compressed.
It's density increases
What shape will a liquid have if you pour it into a bunny rabbit shaped container?
Bunny rabbit shape
How are the particles in a liquid and gas similar?
They can change position.
How can we make a high viscosity liquid flow faster?
Heat
What causes surface tension?
Particle attraction.
What happens when two things are proportional.
When one goes up, the other goes up.
What can a gas do that a liquid or solid can't do?
compress
How are the particles in a gas different from the particles in a liquid?
They can move farther apart.
What causes liquid viscosity?
Particle attraction
Why does particle attraction cause surface tension?
It is only to the sides and down.
What happens when two things are inversely proportional?
When one goes up, the other goes down.
What happens to some gases when they are very compressed?
They become liquids.
Why do the particles in a gas move more than the particles in a liquid?
More energy
Why do we need high viscosity liquids?
VA
How can you bread surface tension?
With force or a different substance like soap
What are the two laws we learned about gas?
Charle's law and Boyle's law.
