Chapter 4- Physical Behavior Of Matter Flashcards
What are the properties of a liquid?
No Definition shape definite volume
What are the properties of a gas?
No definite shape or volume
What is kinetic energy directly related with?
Temperature
What is another name for fusion and what type of energy is it?
Melting and potential energy
What is another word for boiling?
Vaporization
What is the reverse of boiling?
Condensation
What is the reverse of melting and what is another word that can be used?
Freezing or solidification
What is the definition of the process sublimation?
When a solid changes directly into a gas
What is the definition of the process deposition
When a gas changes directly into a solid
What is the definition of temperature
The measure of the average kinetic energy of its particles
What does the average kinetic energy depend on?
It depends on only temperature not nature or amount of the material
How does heat flow
From a higher temperature to a lower temperature
What is the equation use to find Kelvin or Celsius?
K= C +273
What is the definition of heat of fusion and equation used to determine it
Heat of fusion is the amount of heat needed to convert our unit mass of a substance from solid to liquid at it’s melting point
Q= mC(delta)T
What does each letter in the equation for heat of fusion mean
Q=heat in joules
M= mass of the substance
C= specific heat capacity of substance
(Delta)T= temperature initial minus temperature final
