Front 1

Crystalline Solid

Back 1

A crystal or crystalline solid is a solid material whose constituent atoms, molecules, or ions are arranged in an orderly repeating pattern extending in all three spatial dimensions.

Front 2

Solid

Back 2

Tightly packed
fixed position
definite shape and definite volume
indefinite number of free surfaces

Front 4

Gases

Back 4

Very far apart and move freely
Indefinite shape and indefinite volume
No free surfaces

Front 5

Plasma

Back 5

Ionized Gas
Good conductor of electricity and affected by magnetic fields
Indefinite shape and indefinite volume

Front 6

amorphous solid

Back 6

In condensed matter physics, an amorphous or non-crystalline solid is a solid that lacks the long-range order characteristic of a crystal.
In part of the older literature, the term has been used synonymous with glass.

Front 7

viscosity

Back 7

Viscosity is a measure of the resistance of a fluid which is being deformed by either shear stress or tensile stress. In everyday terms (and for fluids only), viscosity is "thickness" or "internal friction". Thus, water is "thin", having a lower viscosity, while honey is "thick", having a higher viscosity. Put simply, the less viscous the fluid is, the greater its ease of movement (fluidity).[1]

Front 8

Vaporization

Back 8

The process by which a liquid becomes a vapor

Front 9

Condensation

Back 9

The process by which a vapor becomes a liquid

Front 10

sublimation

Back 10

The process by which a solid changes to the gas phase directly, with out passing through the liquid phase

Front 11

Boyle's Law

Back 11

States that the pressure and volume of a gas at constant temperature are inversely proportional to each other

Front 12

Charle's Law

Back 12

States that the volume of an ideal gas at constant pressure varies directly with its Kelvin temperature
