Definitions
Compacting molecules to change a liquid to a solid.
What is freezing?
A transition from one state to another without changing the molecule composition.
What is a phase change.
A phase where all the particles are packed close together and have little spacing
What is solid?
The thing that holds molecules together and either gets compacted or broken apart during a phase change.
What are bonds?
Spreading molecules to change a solid to a liquid
What is melting?
The sum of the kinetic energy in an object.
What is heat?
A phase where particles are extremely spread apart and free flowing with loads of empty space.
What is gas?
The shape of the line graphing a phase change.
What is non-linear?
Compacting molecules to change a gas to a liquid.
What is condensation?
The average of the kinetic energy in all the particles of an object.
What is temperature?
A phase where particles are free moving but still relatively close.
What is liquid?
This is what happens to molecules when changing from liquid to gas.
What is breaking apart?
Spreading molecules to change a liquid to a gas.
What is boiling?
This action adds energy and causes molecules to move faster and slowly break apart.
What is heating?
This action takes away energy to cause particles to move slower and bonds to form and compact closer.
What is cooling?
This stays the same during a phase change.
What is the heat during a phase change.
When a solid changes directly to a gas without entering the liquid phase.
What is sublimation?
When a gas turns into a solid without entering the liquid state at any point.
What is deposition?
A state of matter made of positive ions and free electrons.
What is plasma?
This is what happens to the molecules when an object changes from liquid to solid.
What is compacting?
