what is matter
anything that takes up space and has mass
100
what is energy
the ability to do work
100
what is freezing
the change from a liquid to a solid
100
what is evaporation
the change from a liquid to a gas at the surface of the liquid
200
what is a solid
matter that has a definite shape and volume
200
what is kinetic energy
the energy of motion
200
what is boiling
the change from a liquid to a gas
200
what is sublimation
the change from a solid directly to a gas
300
what is a liquid
matter that has a definite shape and volume
300
what is potential energy
energy at rest
300
what is melting
a solid to a liquid
300
what is deposition
the changing of a gas directly to a solid
400
what is a gas
matter with no definite shape and no definite volume
400
what is temperature
the kinetic energy of the individual particles
400
what is condensation
the change from a gas to a liquid

what is Kinetic Theory?

All things are made of particles that are in motion. Hot things have particles that are fast and far away. Cold things have particles that are slow and close together.

what is a plasma
an ionized, electrically charged gas
500

what is Thermal Energy

The total amount of thermal energy in the system

500
what is vaporization
the change from a liquid to a gas

what is Particle Motion

the particles that make up a solid, liquid, gas, and plasma move differently because of kinetic energy. They move faster as a result of heat energy and this causes the states of matter.
