Chemistry Flashcards
What state is a substance if it’s particles are NOT touching and are always moving?
Gas
What state is a particle in if it can touch each other but can move past each other?
Liquid
What particle state is much more spread out?
Gas
What particle state can match the shape of a container?
Liquid
Do crystalline solids have a regular repeating pattern or a disrupted arrangement?
Repeating pattern
What is an amorphous solid?
A disrupted arrangement that particles are associated and hold their shape
What is a crystalline solid?
A regular, ordered, repeating pattern that forms a solid lattice
True or False: Gas particles touch
False
What particle state is arranged in a regular pattern of lines and rows?
Solid State
What particle state are arranged randomly?
Liquid State
True or False: Solid particles vibrate on the spot
True
What is condensation?
A change of state from a gas to a liquid
How does condensation happen?
When you cool down a gas and reduce the energy of it’s particles
What is boiling?
A change from liquid to gas
How does boiling happen?
When liquid particles are heated, making them move faster and faster
What is the end result of boiling?
Particles move quickly without touching turning to gas
