Chapter 3, Section 1

Question 1

solid

Answer 1

definite shape, definite volume, distinct melting point

Question 2

particles in a solid

Answer 2

closely packed particles that can move slightly(vibrations), strong attraction between particles, cannot move enough to overcome this attraction

Question 3

types of solids

Answer 3

amorphous-not arranged in a crystal shape, ex: rubber, plastic, glass, wax

crystalline-particles form a regular repeating pattern, ex: salt, ice, snow, iron, diamond

Question 4

liquids

Answer 4

matter that has a definite volume but no definite shape

Question 5

particles of a liquid

Answer 5

particles close together but flow around each other, move fast enough to overcome this attractions between particles

Question 6

fluid

Answer 6

a substance that has no fixed shape

Question 7

surface tension

Answer 7

a force that brings water molecules together on the surface

Question 8

viscosity

Answer 8

a liquid’s resistance to flowing

ex: honey, glue, syrup

Question 9

effusive

Answer 9

readily flowing

Question 10

gas

Answer 10

no definite volume, no definite shape

Question 11

gas properties

Answer 11

fill up all available space, can be pushed close together

Question 12

gas particles

Answer 12

particles move quickly so they can break away completely from one another, gas particles will move in straight lines until they bounce off of something

Question 13

plasma properties

Answer 13

high energy, highly dangerous, plentiful in universe
