15
Q

A measure of how hot or cold something is

A measure of the average kinetic energy of the particles in an object

A

Temperature

16
Q

The total kinetic energy of a substance’s atoms

A

Thermal energy

17
Q

What happens when a substance changes from one state of matter to another?

A

The identity of a substance does not change during a change of state
The energy of a substance does change

18
Q

What changes of state require energy

A

Melting
Evaporation
Sublimation

19
Q

What changes of state release energy

A

Freezing

Condensation

20
Q

What happens to mass no energy during physical and chemical changes

A

Mass and energy are both conserved

Neither mass nor energy can be created or destroyed

21
Q

What is the law of conservation of mass

A

In chemical changes, as well as in physical changes, the total mass of the substances undergoing the change stays the same before and after the change

22
Q

What is the law of conservation of energy

A

Energy may be changed to another form during a physical others chemical change, but the total amount of energy present before and after the change is the same

23
Q

What are some properties of gases

A

Gases expand to fill their containers
They spread out easily and mix with one another
They have low densities and are compressible
They are mostly empty space, unlike solids and liquids
Gases exert pressure on their containers

24
Q

The laws that state the mathematical relationship between the volume, pressure, temperature, and quantity of a gas

A

Gas laws

25
Q

What 2 things does Boyle’s law relate

A

Pressure of a gas to its volume

26
Q

What is Boyle’s law?

A

The volume of a gas increases as the pressure decreases and vice versa

27
Q

What is the formula for Boyle’s law

A

P1V1 = P2V2

28
Q

What two things does Gay-Lussac’s law relate

A

Gas pressure to temperature

29
Q

What is Gay-Lussac’s law

A

The pressure of a gas increases as the temperature increases and vice versa

30
Q

What 2 things does Charles’s law relate

A

Temperature to volume

31
Q

What is Charles’s law

A

The volume of the gas increases and the gas’s temperature increases and vice versa
