Q

It is the state of matter with a defined appearance. It has its own shape, and has very little to no molecular movement. This is the state of matter with a very rigid molecular structure. An example is diamond.

Q

It is the state of matter with molecular movement. Its movement is dictated by how fast the liquid flows. It has no shape of its own due to its loose molecular structure. Instead, it takes the shape of its container. An example is a glass of lemon juice.

A
  • Liquid

Q

It is the state of matter with a very high molecular movement. Due to heat, a gas becomes ___ due to the energy it absorbs and releases, making its molecules move even faster.

Q

process of adding heat to a liquid

A
  • Evaporation
17
Q

process of adding heat to a gas, adding energy to it, charging the molecules into ions

A
  • Ionization
18
Q

process of removing heat in a plasma, returning the ions to a ground state, becoming a gas

A
  • Recombination/Deionization
19
Q

process of transferring energy in gas molecules to the surrounding area, forcing the gas molecules to form bonds and coalesce into a liquid

A
  • Condensation
20
Q

process of transferring heat in liquids to the surrounding area, forcing the molecules to reform and bond into a solid

A
  • Freezing
21
Q

process of adding energy to a solid, dissipating into a gas without transitioning to the liquid phase

A
  • Sublimation
22
Q

process of transferring energy from the gas molecules to the surrounding area, forcing them to combine and make “deposits” of clumped gas molecules together, reforming into a solid

A
  • Deposition
