  • Front
  • Back
a state of matter that starts as a gas and then becomes ionized
• Plasma
the capacity to do work
• Energy
the kinetic energy of a substance's atoms
• Thermal Energy
the change of a substance from a liquid to a gas
• Evaporation
the process in which a solid changes directly into a gas
• Sublimation
the change of a substance from a gas to a liquid
• Condensation
What is the Kinetic Theory
• All matter is made up tiny moving particles
• The higher the temperature, the faster the particles move
• Larger particles move slower than smaller particles
Solids have:
• A rigid structure
• Definite volume
• Definite shape
• Particles that have no freedom to move
Two types of solids:
Crystalline, Amorphous
• Liquids:
• Have definite volume
• Do not have definite shape
• Particles have some freedom to move
Gases:
• Change shape and volume
• Move very rapidly
Plasma State:
• Makes up 99% of known matter in the universe (sun and stars)
• No definite shape or volume
• Particles break apart
• Conduct electricity
2 types of plasma
Natural, Artificial
a non solid state of matter in which the atoms or molecules are free to move past each other, as in a gas or liquid
• Fluid
the upward force exerted on an object immersed in or floating on a fluid
• Buoyant Force
the amount of force exerted per unit area of a surface
• Pressure
the principle that states that the buoyant force on an object in a fluid is an upward force equal to the weight of the volume of fluid that the object displaces
• Archimedes' Principle
the principle that states that a fluid in equilibrium contained in a vessel exerts a pressure of equal intensity in all directions
• Pascal's Principle
the resistance of a gas or liquid to flow
• Viscosity
the law that states that for a fixed amount of gas at a constant temperature, the volume of the gas increases as the pressure of the gas decreases and the volume of the gas decreases as the pressure of the gas increases
• Boyle's Law
the law that states for a fixed amount of gas at a constant pressure, the volume of the gas increases as the temperature of the gas increases and the volume of the gas decreases as the temperature of the gas decreases
• Charles's Law
the law that states that the pressure of a gas at a constant volume is directly proportional to the absolute temperature
• Gay-Lussac's Law
