States of Matter
molecules are moving the slowest and are totally packed together
solid
Light is bouncing off matter.
reflect
Heat transfer always goes from the __________ object to the ___________ object.
from the warmer object to the colder object
precipitation
Metal
has no definite shape or volume
gas
Light is going through matter.
Transmitting
Heat transfer through touching
conduction
liquid changing to a gas, due to heat
evaporation
conductor
molecules are speeding up to a medium speed and are kind of spreading out
liquid
Light is stopped and soaked into the matter.
Absorbing
The heat transfer that causes the sun to melt a popsicle.
radiation
when gas changes to a liquid, this happens most commonly in clouds
condensation
plastic, wool
insulator
Which phase change is a gas to a liquid?
condensation
This color absorbs all colors of light.
black
This type of heat transfer involves currents that rise
convection
Bodies of water, ice or snow on Earth
collection
What material is a good conductor of heat and reflects radiation?
aluminum foil
Which phase change is liquid to a gas?
Evaporation
What color of light has longer wavelengths and lower frequencies?
Red
The particles move faster and space out more. (You must name one of those to get the points)
the process by which plants take up water through the roots and release it out as a gas
What makes a material a good insulator and a poor conductor?
There is more space between the particles OR the particles are less dense.
