What is matter?

Matter is anything that has mass and takes up space.

100

What are the 4 states of matter?

solid, liquid, gas, and plasma

100

The change of state from a liquid to a gas (examples are boiling or evaporation)

vaporization

100

the measure of the average kinetic energy of the individual particles in an object

temperature

100

On a white board draw what the particles look like for a solid, liquid, gas, and plasma


200

What are the characteristics to describe matter?

Properties

200

This state of matter flows easily.  Please give me three examples of it.

Fluid

oj, honey, water

200

The change of state from a liquid to a gas (examples are boiling or evaporation)

vaporization

200

What are the 2 main temperatures we use on a thermometer?

 

Fahrenheit


Celsius

200

What does the kinetic theory of energy state?

states that all of the particles that make up matter are constantly in motion

300

What are three characteristics of properties of matter?

Color, odor, shape, size, texture, hardness

300

What is the resistance of a liquid to flowing?

A substance with _________ flows slowly.

A substance with ___________ flows quickly

  

Viscosity

high

low

300

What is the process of adding or removing electrons from an atom to charge gas and change it to plasma? 

ionization

300

What is the point at which no more energy or heat can be removed from a substance. All particle motion stops

absolute zero

300

What is plasma?

  • Assumes the shape & volume of its container

  • Particles are moving very fast are charged (+/-)

  • Very compressible

  • Lots of free space between particles

  • Flows easily

400

This type of solid has a regular, repeating pattern, and examples include sugar, sand, and snow.  It has a distinct melting point.




Crystalline Solid

400

What takes the shape of the volume of it container, and the particles move very fast.

Gas

400

What is the changing of plasma to a gas by removing energy from the plasma? 

deionization

400

What is 

  • The total energy of the particles in a substance of matter.

thermal energy

400

Give a definition of a solid and liquid.

Solid-tightly packed in a regular pattern, vibrate but don't move from place to place.

liquid-close together with no regular arrangement. Slide past each other.

500
  • A solid not arranged in a regular repeating pattern

  • Ex. Plastics, rubber, glass

  • No distinct melting point

Amorphous solid

500

What is an ionized (+/- charged) state of matter usually formed at high temperatures? Particles are moving very fast and are charged (+/-)

Give three examples

Plasma

lightening

sun

north star

flames

500

What does the kinetic theory of matter state?

states that all of the particles that make up matter are constantly in motion

500

What is the difference between thermal energy & temperature?


Temperature is a measure of the average kinetic energy of the individual particles of matter.  Thermal energy is the total energy of all the particles.

500

Give a definition of gas and plasma.

Gas-well separated with no regular arrangement vibrate and move freely at high speeds.

Plasma-has no definite volume or shape and is composed of electrically charged particles.
