Gas laws, states of matter, Flashcards
Boyle’s law
Pressure is inversely
proportional to volume
Charles’s law
Volume is directly
proportional to temperature
Kelvin scale (absolute scale)
temp. scale used with gas laws
pressure
amount of force per unit of area
volume
[ 2 ways to measure it]
When measuring the space
occupied by an object
formula/water displacement
Mass
amount of matter in an object
weight
measure of gravitational force on an object
matter
anything with mass and volume
inertia
tendency of object to resist change in motion
kinetic potential
energy that is related
to the temperature of a
substance
physical
A property that can be
measured and observed
without changing the
identity of the substance
chemical
A property when measured
and observed changes the
identity of the substance
density
ratio of
mass: volume
physical properties
State/solubility/electrical conductivity/color are examples
chemical properties
flammability, reactivity, toxicity, acidity are examples
Physical change
change in state
chemical change
change in identity/composition
evidences of chemical change
production of gas (fizzing or bubbling) change in odor change in color light produced sound produced change in temperature (heat produced)
surface tension
Force that causes liquids to
minimize their surface area
(by forming spheres)
viscosity
resistance of a fluid to
flow
Solid
definite shape+ definite volume
liquid
indefinite shape + definite volume
gas
indefinite shape + indefinite volume
liquid solids
Condensed states (tightly packed particles)
gases liquids
Fluid states
boiling point
when vapor pressure (pressure of vapor above liquid) is equal to atmospheric pressure
evaporation
transition from a Liquid to a
gas that can happen at any
temperature and only at the
surface
freezing
melting
liquid to solid
solid to liquid
Vaporization
condensation
Liquid to gas
Gas to liquid
sublimation
deposition
Solid to gas
Gas to solid
Crystalline
orderly three deminsional object
triple point
where all 3 states coexist together
vapor pressure
measure of the tendency of a material to change into the gaseous or vapor state, and it increases with temperature.
water displacement
putting a object in water and it raises the level of the water. amount of water displaced is the volume of the object.
graduated cylinder
measures volume, tube
