Chapter 16- States of Matter and Principles Flashcards
Solid
tightly packed atoms, specific geometric arrangement
Liquid
more spread out atoms, gain KE and slip out of solid state
Gas
very spread out, no fixed volume or shape
plasma
matter consisting of positively and negatively charged particles
What happens to most matter when heated?
Most matter expands when heated
Heat of Fusion
temperature change solid to liquid
Heat of Vaporization
temperature change liquid to gas
Boyle’s Law
decreased volume and hold temperature constant and pressure increases
Example of Boyle’s Law
Weather Ballons
Charles’ Law
Volume increased= temperature increased if pressure stays constant
Example of Charles’ Law
Hot Air Ballon
Archimedes Principle
buoyant force= weight of fluid displaced by object
Example of Archimedes’ Principle
Boat floating on water
Bernoulli’s Principle
Velocity increases pressure exerted by object decreases
Example of Bernoulli’s Principle
Airplane
