What shape is a solid.  

Any shape

What is a liquid?

A liquid is a state of matter that can flow and take the shape of its container, but has a fixed volume.

 What is a gas?

  • A gas is a state of matter where the particles are far apart and move randomly, taking the shape and volume of their container.

What are some examples of liquids

Some common examples of liquids include water, milk, juice, and oil.

 What are some examples of gases?

  • Oxygen, nitrogen, carbon dioxide, helium, and air are all examples of gases.

What is a solid?  How does it differ from a liquid or a gas.

A state of matter that has a definite shape and volume, while liquid and gases have neither.

300

 What is the difference between a liquid and a gas?

 Gases have neither a definite shape nor volume, and they fill the entire space available to them. Liquids have a fixed volume but no definite shape.

What are the properties of gases?

  • Gases have no fixed shape or volume, meaning they will expand to fill the entire space available to them. 


  • Gases are compressible, meaning they can be squeezed into a smaller space.

What type of blood vessels carry blood away from the heart?

Arteries

what do paricals in a solid 

very compacts

400

 Can liquids be compressed

Yes, liquids can be compressed under high pressure, but they are much less compressible than gases

400

Why are gases important?


  • We need gases like oxygen to breathe, and carbon dioxide is important for plant growth.
  •  Many gases are used in manufacturing processes and as fuel sources.

How is thermal energy related to temperature?

Higher temperatures mean higher thermal energy.

What types of fuel are coal, oil, and natural gas?

 Fossil fuel

Glass is often described as a solid, yet it can flow slowly over long periods. How can this be explained?

Answer: This apparent contradiction can be explained by considering glass's viscosity and the long timescales involved. While glass is generally considered a solid due to its rigidity and definite shape, it actually exhibits viscous behavior at atomic scales. Over extremely long periods (e.g., centuries), the atoms within glass can slowly rearrange and flow, like a very high-viscosity liquid, leading to the slow deformation seen in ancient glass objects.

 What happens when a liquid changes to a gas?

When a liquid changes to a gas, it's called evaporation (at room temperature) or boiling (when heated). This happens when the liquid reaches its boiling point and the molecules gain enough energy to escape into the gas phase.

500

 How do gases behave?

  • Gases move freely and rapidly in all directions.
  • They are not tightly packed like solids or liquids.

What is the difference between temperature and thermal energy

Temperature is the average kinetic energy and thermal energy is the total kinetic energy
