Grade 5 - Changes in Matter Flashcards
A change that affects only the physical properties of matter is called ______.
physical change
A change in the phase or state of matter is another example of ________.
physical change
True or False: A change in phase may occur when heat is added or removed from a substance.
True.
A liquid turning into gas undergoes a process called ______.
evaporation
When heated, some solids turn directly into gas without passing through the liquid phase. This process is called _______.
sublimation
When some gases cool down, they can turn directly into solids through a process called ________.
deposition
Provide the following process for each corresponding physical change.
- Melting
- Freezing
- Evaporation
- Condensation
- Deposition
- Sublimation
Process:
- Melting - Solid to liquid
- Freezing - Liquid to solid
- Evaporation- Liquid to gas
- Condensation - Gas to liquid
- Deposition - Gas to solid
- Sublimation - Solid to gas
A new substance is formed when a _________ takes place.
chemical change
True or False: The composition of matter is altered when a chemical change takes place.
True
True or False: A chemical change may happen in the presence or absence of oxygen or with the application of heat.
True
Give some examples or evidence that indicate chemical change.
Changes in color, taste, and smell.
The release of light and heat.
The formation of gas.
True or False: Chemical change may be hastened or slowed down by changes in temperature.
True
True or False: Heat can cause some substances to decompose and form new substances.
True
The decomposition of substance due to heat is called ______.
thermal decomposition
It is a form of chemical change or reaction that involves heating and breaking down of a complex substance into two or more simpler substances
