Q

Required practical- to investigate the densities of regular and irregular solid objects and liquids

A

D of liquid- find volume in measuring cylinder and weigh it
D of regular object- find volume l x w x h and weigh it
D of irregular object- squish into regular shape and find v and weigh it

Q

Specific heat capacity

A

The energy needed to raise 1Kg of a substance by 1 degree Celsius

17
Q

Latent heat

A

The energy needed for a substance to change a state without a change in temperature

18
Q

Specific latent heat of fusion

A

Change of state from solid to liquid

19
Q

Specific latent heat of vaporisation

A

Liquid to gas (vapour)

Much greater

20
Q

Pressure

A

The total force exerted by all the molecules inside the container that strike a unit area of the wall

21
Q

Increasing pressure

A

In a sealed container the mass and volume stay constant and you increase the temp the pressure will increase
Depends on volume mass and temp

22
Q

Work done on gas

A

When gas in compressed, force is required.

Energy is transferred so work is done
