Q

What temperature does ice melt?

A

0 degrees C

16
Q

What temperature does water freeze at?

A

0 degrees C

17
Q

What is the boiling point of water?

A

100 degrees C

18
Q

Why and how do boiling temperatures change at higher altitudes?

A

They would change because the atmospheric pressure changes. The boiling point would be lower when the elevation is higher

19
Q

Does temperature increase during melting?

A

No

20
Q

Can both liquid water and steam exist at 100 degrees C?

A

Yes

21
Q

What role does energy play during a phase change?

A

The energy breaks the bonds and pulls the molecules apart

22
Q

What must be changed, temperature or heat energy during melting?

A

Heat energy

23
Q

What is endothermic?

A

The system absorbs energy from its surroundings (energy ENters)

24
Q

What is exothermic?

A

The system releases energy to it’s surroundings (energy EXits)

25
Q

Which three phase changes are endothermic?

A

Melting
Vaporization
Sublimation

26
Q

Which three phase changes are exothermic?

A

Deposition
Condensation
Freezing
