Solid
Solids have a (enter answer here) shape and volume
What is definite?
Liquids have an (enter answer here) shape, and a definite volume.
What is indefinite?
The particles in a gas move in (enter answer here) directions.
What is random?
Plasma is most similar to which state?
Gas
This state of matter has less thermal energy than a liquid.
What is a solid?
How do particles move in a solid?
They vibrate in place.
Particles in a liquid are (enter answer here) spaced.
What is closely?
The particles in a gas have an (enter answer here) shape and an (enter answer here) volume.
What is indefinite?
Name one example of plasma
Lightning, stars, or the Sun
When this is added to a substance, its state of matter changes.
What is thermal energy?
The point at which a solid is heated so much, it creates a liquid.
What is the melting point?
This is the word for when a liquid cools and turns into a solid.
What is freezing?
What happens to gas particles when thermal energy increases?
They move faster
What makes plasma different from an ordinary gas?
Plasma contains electrically charged particles.
This state of matter has the most thermal energy, and and made up of charged particles.
What is a plasma?
What happens to particle motion when a solid is heated?
A: The particles move/vibrate faster.
This is the point at which a liquid gains thermal energy and turns into a gas.
What is boiling point?
This is the name for when a solid turns into a gas.
What is sublimation?
Explain how a gas can become plasma.
Adding enough energy ionizes the gas, producing charged particles.
Name the states of matter in order from least to most energy.
What is solid, liquid, gas, plasma?
When put into a container solids do not (enter answer here).
What is fill the shape of their container?
This is the key characteristic of liquids.
What is fill the shape of their container?
This is the term for when a gas turns into a solid.
What is deposition?
What must be added to a gas to help turn it into plasma?
Energy
This has more thermal energy than a solid, its particles can slide past each other, it has less rigid motion than a plasma, and it is the state of matter a solid changes to when it reaches its boiling point.
What is a liquid?
