26
Q

Kinetic energy is absorbed by

A

The liquid resulting in increased temperature

27
Q

Warming process from a gas

A

To a liquid

28
Q

When temperature of the atmosphere is low, the water molecules in the air

A

Move slowly

29
Q

Slow moving water molecules stick together, causing what?

A

Condensation

30
Q

Fog and clouds are created when

A

Air rises and the molecules of water vapor combine to make tiny liquid water droplets that hang in the air

31
Q

The way we see the fog by the

A

Tiny water droplet moving

32
Q

Condensation (Cloud)

A

1) Warm air rises (less dense)
2) Warm air expands and chills
3) Water vapor molecules slow down and stick together
4) Water vapor molecules combine with other dust particles in the air to form cloud droplets that grows into cloud

33
Q

Boiling process is a

A

Rapid evaporation from beneath the surface of a liquid

34
Q

Forces due to combined pressure of

A

Atmosphere and water

35
Q

Boiling process is a rapid form of

A

Evaporation beneath the surface forms vapor bubbles and the bubble rise to the surface

36
Q

If vapor pressure in the bubble is less than the surrounding pressure (atm and water), then

A

The bubble collapse

37
Q

Bubbles do not form at the temperature below

Boiling point (vapor pressure is insufficient)

38
Q

Boiling water at 100 degrees Celcius is in

A

39
Q

Boiling water is being

A

Cooled as fast as it is being warmed

40

41
Q

Boiling point depends on

45
Q

Melting

A

Change of phase from a solid to a liquid and the opposite of freezing

46
Q

When heat is supplied to a

A

Solid and added vibration breaks molecules loose from the structure and melting occurs

47
Q

Freezing

A

Change of phase from a liquid to a solid and opposite of melting

48
Q

When energy is continually removed from a liquid, molecular motion decreases until

50
Q

Under a specified pressure, the temperature and a liquid and solid exists in
