boiling
|
the formation of bubbles of gas throughout a liquid
|
|
boiling point
|
the temperature at which liquid turns to a gas and gas changes to a liquid
|
|
calorie
|
the amount of heat energy that raises the temperature of exactly 1g of water at exactly 1 degree celsius
|
|
change of state
|
the transformation of one state of matter to another, for example, solid to liquid, liquid to solid, liquid to gas
|
|
chemical change
|
a change during which the original substance is converted into a new substance that has a different composition and new chemical and physical properties
|
|
chemical properties
|
the properties that indicate the ability of a substance to change into a new substance
|
|
compound
|
a pure substance consisting of two or more elements, with a definite composition, that can be broken down into simpler substances only by chemical methods
|
|
condensation
|
the change of state of a gas to a liquid
|
|
cooling curve
|
a diagram that illustrates temperature changes and changes of state for a substance as heat is removed
|
|
deposition
|
the change of a gas directly into a solid; the reverse of sublimation
|
|
element
|
a pure substance containing only one type of matter, which cannot be broken by chemical methods
|
|
energy
|
the ability to do work
|
|
energy value
|
the kilocalories obtained per gram of the food types; carbs, fats and proteins
|
|
evaporation
|
the formation of a gas (vapor) by the escape of high energy molecules from the surface of a liquid
|
|
freezing
|
the change of state from liquid to solid
|
|
freezing point
|
the temperature at which liquid changes to solid and solid changes to liquid
|
|
gas
|
a state of matter that does not have a definite shape or volume
|
|
heat
|
the energy associated with the motion of particles in a substance
|
|
heat of fusion
|
the energy required to melt exactly 1g of a substance at its melting point. For water, 80 cal. are needed to melt 1g of ice; 80 cal. are released when 1g of water freezes
|
|
heat of vaporization
|
the energy required to vaporize exactly 1g of a substance at its boiling point. For water, 540 cal. are needed to vaporize 1g of a liquid; 1g of steam gives of 540 cal. when it condenses
|
|
heating curve
|
a diagram that shows the temperature changes and changes of state of a substance as it is heated
|
|
joule
|
the SI unit of heat energy; 4.184 J = 1 cal
|
|
kinetic energy
|
the energy of moving particles
|
|
liquid
|
a state of matter that takes the shape of its container but has a definite volume
|
|
matter
|
the material that makes up a substance and has mass and occupies space
|
|
melting
|
the change of state from solid to liquid
|
|
melting point
|
the temperature at which a solid becomes a liquid. It is the same temperature as the freezing point
|
|
mixture
|
the physical combination of two or more substances that does not change the identities of the mixed substances
|
|
physical change
|
a change in which the physical properties of a substance change but its identity stays the same
|
|
physical properties
|
the properties that can be observed or measured without affecting the identity of a substance
|
|
potential energy
|
a type of energy related to position or composition of a substance
|
|
pure substance
|
a type of matter composed of elements and compounds that has a definite composition
|
|
solid
|
a state of matter that has its own shape and volume
|
|
specific heat
|
a quantity of heat that changes the temperature of exactly 1g of a substance by exactly 1 degree celsius; a lower SH means it heats up easily
|
|
states of matter
|
three forms of matter; solid, liquid, gas
|
|
sublimation
|
the change of state in which a solid is transformed directly to a gas without forming a liquid first.
