Name the the process that describes liquid turning into a gas.
What is evaporation?
100
A scale used to indicate a precise temperature in Canada.
What is Celsius?
100
The state in which particles held in a fixed position.
What is solid?
100
Water will freeze at this temperature.
What is 0ºC or -32ºF?
100
The process of transferring thermal energy through direct collisions between particles.
What is conduction?
200
A term for how warm or cool something is, measured in scales.
What is temperature?
200
A scale used to indicate a precise temperature in the USA.
What is Fahrenheit?
200
A model that presents the idea that all substances are made of tiny particles too small to be seen.
What is the particle model of matter?
200
A process that releases energy when a solid turns into a liquid.
What is melting or fusion?
200
Poor conductors of energy are known as this.
What is insulator?
300
A term for the transfer of energy without any movement of matter.
What is radiation?
300
At what temperature does water boil in Banff, Alberta?
What is 100ºC?
300
A measure of something's ability to do work or cause change. Describes a quality or a condition.
What is energy?
300
Particles become more organized as their energy drops and this change of state occurs.
What is changing from a liquid to a solid?
300
Heating a home would use this process.
What is convection?
400
A term for when a warm fluid, like water or air, moves, carrying the thermal energy with it expands and rises, then cools and contracts, sinking before moving in to be warmed again
What is convection?
400
A temperature considered normal for a healthy Calgarian?
What is 37ºC?
400
What states that energy cannot be destroyed; can only be transformed from one type to another or passed from one object to another?
What is The Law of Conservation of Energy?
400
A substance that does not follow the 'rules' of expansion and contraction.
What is water? Usually materials expand when heated and contract when cooled; water does the opposite.
400
An energy source that harnesses energy from the Earth's interior.
What is geothermal energy?
500
A term for when a solid turns directly into a gas or when a gas turns directly into a solid
What is sublimation?
500
A Canadian astronaut would give this temperature to describe absolute zero.
What is -273ºC or 0 Kelvin
500
Air particles move faster as their average energy increases, causing this.
What is expansion?
500
A engineer building a bridge would have to think about this to ensure that the bridge would remain intact in all seasons.
What is expansion and contraction?
500
A source of energy that involves turbines, generators and water.
