Q

the particle model

A

-all substances are made of tiny particles too small to be seen
-particles are always in motion
-particles have spaces in between them
The motion of particles increases as temperature increases and decreases as temperature decreases. *temperature indicates the average speed of particles motion in a substance

Q

Particle theory of matter

A
  1. All matter is made up of tiny particles
    2.particles are allways moving
    3.ther are spaces between particles
    4.particles of a substance have attractive forces between them
    5.temperature effects the speed of particles
    A. Adding heat- increases speed of particles
    B. Removing heat (cooling) - decreases speed of particles

Sublimation

A

Turn from a solid to a gas or a gas to a solid

27
Q

Conduction

A

Is heat transfer through a matter by physical contact

28
Q

Convection

A

Is the heat transfer by the movement of a fluid

29
Q

Radiation

A

Occurs when microwaves infrared radiation(visible light or another form of electromagnetic radiation

30
Q

Energy source

A

An object or material that can transfer its energy to another objects

31
Q

Radiation

A

The transfer of energy without any movement of matter

32
Q

Radiant energy

A

Also known as electromagnetic radiation

33
Q

All forms of radiant energy

A

-They behave like waves
- they can be absorbed and reflected by objects
- the travel across empty space at the same very high speed 300000 km/s

34
Q

Thermal conduction

A

The process of transferring thermal energy though direct collisions between particles
