100

Atoms have no kinetic energy.

Bose-Einstein Condensate

100

The endothermic transition from a solid to a gas.

Sublimation

100

P1V1/T1 = P2V2/T2

Combined Gas Law

100

The amount of energy needed to cause a solid to transition into a liquid.

Heat of Fusion

100

The relationship between Pressure and Volume.

Inverse Relationship

200

Atoms are highly energetic and lose their electrons creating a very temperature and charged matter. Most matter in the universe exists in this state.

Plasma

200

Temperature during a phase change.

Remains the same until fully transitioned

200

The relationship between Volume and Temperature.

Direct Relationship

200

The amount of energy needed to cause a liquid to transition into a gas.

Heat of Vaporization

200

Three factors that affect pressure of a gas.

Number of particles, volume, temperature

300

Atoms are randomly arranged.

Gas

300

The exothermic change from a gas to a liquid.

Condensation

300

V1/T1 = V2/T2

Charles' Law

300

The state of matter in which a material has neither a definite volume nor definite shape.

Gas

300

All particles are in constant motion.

Kinetic Theory
400

Atoms packed closely together.

Solid

400

Atoms transition from loose to packed arrangement.

Freezing

400

Collisions between particles of a gas and the walls of a container.

Pressure in a closed container

400

The reversible physical change that occurs when a substance changes from one state of matter to another.

Phase Change

400

Six common phase changes.

melting, freezing, condensation, vaporization, sublimation, deposition

500

Atoms are loosely arranged.

Liquid

500

Matter transitions from a gas to a solid without becoming a liquid.

Deposition

500

P1V1 = P2V2

Boyle's Law

500

A temperature of zero kelvin.

Absolute Zero

500

Energy is absorbed.

Endothermic
