100
Has a definite volume but not a definate shape
What is a liquid?
100
How can a solid become a liquid?

What is gain energy.

100

Why does a gas not have definite shape or volume?

What is because the particles do not remain in contact with one another.

100

the total internal kinetic and potential energy of all the particles in an object

What is thermal energy?

100

What is the difference between melting and freezing?

What is melting is when a solid changes to liquid & thermal energy increases. Freezing is when a liquid changes to solid and thermal energy decreases.

200
Has a definite shape and volume
What is a solid?
200

How can a liquid become a solid?

What is lose energy.

200
Phase change of a solid turning into a gas
What is sublimation?
200

The average kinetic and potential energy of all the particles in an object.

What are temperature?

200
When a object melts is it gaining or losing energy? Explain.

What is gaining because in order to melt and become a liquid particles must gain energy so they can move apart?

300

What do crystaline and amorphous solids have in common?

What is both have definite shape and volume.

300

When a gas is cooled it becomes a what?

What is a liquid?

300

What is the volume of a gas?

What is the container that it is in.

300

The change in state form liquid to a gas.

What is vaporization?

300

A spoonful of jam had a definite shape and volume, but only if the spoon does not tip. Is this an amorphous solid, or a liquid with high viscosity?

Liquid with high viscosity.

400

Explain particle movement for solid, liquid, gas

What is: solid: vibrating particles, liquid: sliding particles, gas escaping fast particles

400

What is surface tension?

What is a physical inward force, or pull among the molecules in a liquid that brings molecules at the surface closer together

400

What must happen to a liquid for it to become a gas?

What is it must gain energy.

400
Vaporization that only takes place on the surface of a liquid.

What is a evaporation?

400

If there is high gas pressure above a liquid, what can you say about the amount of thermal energy required for the liquid to change to a gas?

What is a greater amount of TE will be needed for the liquid to change to gas?

500

Explain the two types of solids.

What is amorphic solids - no particle arrangement, and crystalline solids - have a repeating particle arrangement

500

Explain viscosity and give an example.

What is a resistance to flow.  Honey has high viscosity and water has low viscosity.

500
When heat is added to a liquid and becomes a gas.
What is evaporation?
500

A force over and area.

What is pressure?

500

Why can gases be put into a tank?

What is because it can be compressed?
