Changes in State
The change of state from a liquid to a gas that occurs only at the surface of the liquid.
The transfer of thermal energy from a warmer object to a cooler object.
What is heat?
The type of solid where particles are arranged randomly, resulting in a brittle texture.
What is amorphous?
The energy of motion.
What is kinetic energy?
This law states that the pressure of a gas increases if the volume decreases, assuming temperature is constant.
What is Boyle's law?
The process where a solid turns directly into a gas without becoming a liquid.
Sublimation
The transfer of thermal energy by the collision of particles until the materials' thermal energy is equal.
What is conduction?
_________ is special because it is the only substance that exists as a solid, liquid, and gas naturally within Earth's usual temperature range.
What is water?
The sum of the kinetic and potential energy of the particles that make up a material.
What is thermal energy?
This law states that the volume of a gas increases if the temperature increases, assuming pressure is constant.
What is Charles' law?
During melting, thermal energy is added, the temperature remains constant, and this type of energy increases.
What is Potential Energy?
The transfer of thermal energy through electromagnetic waves, which is how the Sun heats the Earth.
What is radiation?
A measurement of a liquid’s resistance to flow; honey has a high one, water has a low one.
What is viscosity?
The energy due to the distance between particles in a material.
What is potential energy?
The relationship between volume and pressure is described by this law.
What is Boyle's Law?
Vaporization occurs both at the surface and within the liquid during this process.
What is boiling?
The movement of fluids in a cycle due to differences in density.
What is convection?
Metal is an example of a __________, a material that allows thermal energy to flow easily.
What is conductor?
According to the heating curve of water, the change from a solid to a liquid occurs at this temperature.
What is 0 degrees celsius?
The relationship between temperature and volume is described by this law.
What is Charles' Law?
The change of state from a gas directly to a solid without going through the liquid state.
What is Deposition?
The rate at which something is heated depends on the difference between the two objects' _________ .
What is temperatures?
The definition of temperature is the average _________ of a material's particles.
What is kinetic energy?
This law states that neither mass nor energy will be created or destroyed during phase changes.
What is the Law of Conservation of Mass and Energy?
A gas has no definite __________ or __________, and its particles are far apart and move freely.
What is volume or shape?
