States
This state has the lowest kinetic energy but atoms are still in motion. Closely packed.
Solid
What temperature is freezing for water?
32 F
Describes buoyancy and displaced liquid. Boats.
Archimedes Principle
Milk and paint
Colloid
Shiny, ductile, malleable and good conductor of heat and electricity
Metals
This state has the highest kinetic energy. Atoms are in constant motion. Loosely packed.
Gas
Process of a solid changing into a gas with the liquid state in between.
Boiling point
Pressure in = pressure out. The main law in hydraulics.
Pascal's
River water
Suspension
Includes several elements that are essentials for human life - lithium and sodium
Alkali Metals
Medium kinetic energy. Atoms are in motion but a little slower. Takes shape easily.
Liquid
The temperature that a solid becomes a liquid.
Melting point
As the velocity of a fluid increases, the pressure decreases. Garden hoses and your thumb.
Bernoullii's
Soft drinks, blood
homogeneous mixture
Magnesium and calcium
Alkali Earth Metals
The temperature that a liquid becomes excited and can overcome pressure holding it together.
Boiling point
Energy required to change a substance from a solid to a liquid at its melting point.
Melting point
When the pressure of a gas is constant, then the product of the pressure and volume does not change.
Charles' Law
Salad dressing
Heterogeneous mixture
Includes the Iron triad and coinage metals
Transition elements
Process of a solid changing into a gas without the liquid state in between.
Sublimation
Amount of energy required to a liquid to become a gas.
Heat of vaporization
When the temperature of a gas is constant, the product of the pressure and volume of that gas does not change.
Boyle's
Vinegar, tea
Homogeneous mixture
How easily a liquid moves or pours
Viscosity
