7 States and Phases of Matter Flashcards
factors that determine the given type of matter
nature of the particle, chemical bond type, temperature, pressure, etc.
most important factor in determining the given type of matter?
temperature
degree of hotness or coldness of an object
temperature
measurement of heat or how fast the particles are moving
temperature
related to the effect of temperature that affects the state of matter and the motion of the particles
kinetic energy
very low kinetic energy
solid
low kinetic energy
liquid
high kinetic energy
gas
particles vibrate + rotate abt fixed pos
solid
particles slide over each other
liquid
particles move at high speeds
gas
def shape and volume
solids
particles are closely packed together; usually arranged in regular pattern
solids
process in which a solid substance changes into a liquid state due to an increase in temperature
melting
definite volume, no fixed shape
liquids
has particles that can move and are in close contact
liquids
process in which a liquid substance changes into a gas state at a temperature below its boiling point
evaporation
process in which a liquid substance changes into a gas state due to an increase in temperature and pressure
boiling
no definite volume and shape
gas
particles that are widely separated
gas
no def vol + shape
plasma
charged particles; widely separated
plasma
amount of heat energy that is absorbed or released by a substance during a phase change
latent heat
reaction that is cooler than surroundings
endothermic reaction
reaction that is hotter than its surroundings
exothermic reaction
process in which a solid substance changes directly into a gas state without first becoming a liquid
sublimation
phase change in which a liquid substance changes into a solid state
freezing
phase change in which a gas substance changes into a liquid state
condensation
phase change in which a gas substance changes into a solid state without first passing through the liquid state
deposition
3 types of endothermic
melting, boiling, evaporating, sublimation
3 types of exothermic
freezing, deposition, condensation
