Solid
|
A state of matter that has a definite shape and a definite volume.
|
|
|
Crystalline Solid
|
Solid that is made up of crystals in which particles are arranged in a regular, repeating pattern.
|
|
|
Amorphous Solid
|
A solid made up of particles that are not arranged in a regular pattern.
|
|
|
Liquid
|
A state of matter that has no definite shape but has a definite volume.
|
|
|
Fluid
|
A substance that can easily flow.
|
|
|
Surface tension
|
The result of an inward pull among the molecules of a liquid that brings the molecules on the surface closer together.
|
|
|
Viscosity
|
A liquid's resistance to flowing.
|
|
|
Gas
|
A state of matter that has no definite shape and no definite volume.
|
|
|
High viscosity
|
a fluid that doesn't pour easily (like honey)
|
|
|
low viscosity
|
a fluid that has a high rate of flow (pours quickly). Ex: motor oil
|
|
|
Changes of State.
|
Physical changes of matter to a different state (solid, liquid, gas).
|
|
|
Freezing
|
Process in which a liquid changes into a solid.
|
|
|
Melting
|
The process in which a solid changes into a liquid.
|
|
|
Vaporization
|
Process in which a liquid boils and changes into a gas. You would see bubbles of water vapor escaping.
|
|
|
Evaporation
|
Process where a liquid changes into a gas without boiling. You would NOT see bubbles of water vapor
|
|
|
Condensation
|
Process in which a gas changes into a liquid.
|
|
|
Sublimation
|
Process in which a solid changes into a gas.
|
|
|
Deposition
|
Process where a gas changes directly into a solid.
