Solids, Liquids & Gases
The temperature at which a solid becomes a liquid.
Melting point
According to Boyle's Law, as volume of a container of gas is increased what happens to the pressure?
Pressure decreases
The temperature at which a liquid turns into a solid.
Freezing point
According to Charles's Law, as the temperature of a gas is increased what happens to its volume?
Volume increases
Mass per unit volume
Density
In what state do molecules have the highest amount of kinetic energy?
What is a gas?
the energy that is required to change a substance from solid to liquid at its melting point.
Heat of fusion
According to Gay-Lussac's Law as temperature of a gas is increased what happens to the pressure the gas exerts?
Increases
In what state of matter do particles have the least amount of kinetic energy?
Solids
the temperature at which the pressure of the vapor in the liquid is equal to the external pressure acting on the surface of the liquid.
The boiling point
What principle states, "Pressure applied to a fluid is transmitted unchanged throughout the fluid."
Pascal's Principle
An increase in the size of a substance and when the temperature is increased.
Thermal Expansion
An unusual state of matter made up of hot, highly ionized, electrically conducting gas.
Plasma?
the amount of energy required for the liquid at its boiling point to become a gas.
Heat of vaporization
When heat is added to a liquid and becomes a gas.
