particles and matter Flashcards
what is the equation for density
p =m/V
ahat are the units for density
kg/m cubed
what are the units for mass
kg
what are the units for volune
m cubed
how are the particles in a solid areanged
the particles are touching and vibrate around a foxed pattern
how are the particles in a liquid arranged
particles are touching but not in fixed positions, they are free to flow around
how are particles in a gas arranged
particlws are far apart and move around quickly and randomly
how are changes in state different to chemical changes
the material revovers its original porperties if the change is reversed
which state of natter is most dense
solid
what are the names of the five state changes
melting, evaporating, freezing, condensing, subliminating
how do you measure the volume of a tegular solid
measure the length of three sides and multiply together
how do you emasure the volume of an irregular solid
place the irrgular solid in water in a measure cylinder. measure the water by how much the water level has gona up by
what is internal energy
the total kinetic energy and potential energy of all the particles that make up a system
what is the definition of specific heat capacity
the energy needed to heat up 1kg of a material by a temperature of 1 degrees
wwhat is the definition of latent heat
the energy needed to change the state of 1 kg of a substance without changing temperature
