Vocabulary
This is when a liquid turns into a gas
What is vaporization?
These are the three main types of matter on Earth
What are solid, liquid, and gas?
These are the two general forms of energy
What are kinetic and potential energies?
These three things affect how gas behaves
What are temperature, pressure, and volume?
This is the state of matter that has particles that move
What is ALL states of matter have particles that move?
This is when a gas turns into a liquid
What is condensation?
This is the most abundant state of matter in the universe
What is plasma?
This type of energy is the energy of motion
What is kinetic energy?
This is what happens to a gas when a container is made smaller
What is the pressure increases?
This is the scientific unit of measure for temperature we use in the classroom
What is degrees Celsius?
This is the average kinetic energy of all particles in a substance
What is temperature?
This state of matter has a fixed volume and a fixed shape
What is a solid?
This type of energy is related to position or shape (or can be thought of as an object is NOT moving)
What is potential energy?
This is what happens to a container of gas when the temperature increases
What is the volume increases?
This is how particles move in a solid
What is they vibrate?
This is when a solid turns directly into a gas
What is sublimation?
This state of matter has a fixed volume but not a fixed shape
What is a liquid?
Explain what conservation of energy means
What is it means that energy cannot be created or destroyed ("lost")?
This law states that the volume of a gas increases with increasing temperature, if the pressure is constant
What is Charles's law?
A substance like corn syrup that flows slowly has this type of viscosity
What is high viscosity?
This is the amount of force applied per unit of area
What is pressure?
This state of matter has no fixed volume or shape
What is a gas?
This is the difference between temperature and thermal energy
What is temperature is the average kinetic energy of particles in a substance and thermal energy is the TOTAL of kinetic and potential energy of particles in a substance?
This law states that the pressure of gas increases if the volume decreases and pressure of the gas decreases if the volume increases
What is Boyle's law?
List two of the four ideas behind the kinetic molecular theory
What is: 1. small particles make up all matter, 2. particles are in constant motion, 3. particles collide with other particles and objects, 4. when particles collide, no energy is lost
