Unit 1 Lesson 6 Flashcards
What happens when matter changes state?
Energy is gained and lost
The motion of the particles change
The total amount of energy is conserved
Freezing
Freezing point
When a liquid becomes a solid
The temperature at which a liquid changes into a solid
Melting
Melting point
Change of state from solid to a liquid
The temperature at which a solid changes from a solid to a liquid
Evaporation
Boiling
Boiling point
Change from a liquid to a gas ( at the surface)
Rapid change from a liquid to a gas ( throughout the liquid)
The temperature at which a liquid starts to bubble or boil.
(THE GREATER THE AIR PRESSURE, THE HIGHER THE BOILING POINT OF A LIQUID)
Condensation
Change of state from a gas to a liquid
Sublimation
Deposition
Change from a solid directly to a gas
Example: dry ice which is frozen carbon dioxide
When solid iodine is heated, it becomes a purple gas
Change from a gas directly to a solid
Example: water vapor to ice crystals
What happens to matter when a change of state occurs?
The energy of the particles changes
The movement of the particles changes
The distance between the particles changes
***The mass does not change
