Section 4 Changes In State Flashcards
True or False, Thermal energy always flows from a warmer substance to a cooler substance.
True
What happens when it’s thermal energy increases or decreases by a sufficient amount?
Substance changes state.
______________ = Thermal Energy
Temperature
The change in state from a solid to a liquid.
Melting
The energy in the particles of a substance.
Thermal Energy
The change in state from a liquid to a solid.
Freezing
A change from liquid water into water vapor.
Vaporization
Takes place only on the surface of a liquid.
Evaporation
Takes place throughout a liquid.
Boiling
Occurs when gas particles lose enough thermal energy to become a liquid.
Condensation
Occurs when the surface particles of a solid gain enough energy to become a gas.
Sublimation
True or False an addition of energy creates a change in the state.
True
True or False, Thermal energy never flows from a warmer substance to a cooler substance.
False
True or False, Thermal energy never flows from a cooler substance to a warmer substance
