Boyle's Law |
a principle that describes the relationship between pressure and volume of a gas at a constant temperature |
|
|
Boiling Point |
The temperature at which a liquid boils |
|
|
Condensation |
the change in state from a gas to a liquid |
|
|
Charles's Law |
a principle that states that relationships between temperature and and volume of a gas at a constant temperature |
|
|
Evaporation |
the process by which molecules of at the surface of liquid absorbs enough energy to change to a gas |
|
|
Freezing Point |
the temperature at which a liquid freezes |
|
|
Gas |
a state of matter with no definite shape or volume |
|
|
Solid |
a state of matter that has a definite shape and volume |
|
|
Liquid |
a state of matter that has no definite shape but had a definite volume |
|
|
Melting Point |
the temperature at which a substance goes from a solid to liquid:the same as the freezing point: or temperature at which liquid changes to a solid. |
|
|
Pressure |
the force pushing on a surface divided by the area of the surface |
|
|
Sublimation |
the change in state form directly to a gas without passing through the liquid stateSurface Tension - the result of an inward pull among the molecules of a liquid that bring molecules on the surface close together: caused the surface to act as if it has a thin skin |
|
|
Temperature |
How hot or cold something is: a measure of the average energy of motion of the particles of a substance: the measure of the average kinetic energy of the particles of a substance |
|
|
Thermal Energy |
the total kinetic energy and potential energy of all the particles of an object |
|
|
Viscosity |
a liquid resistance to flowing |
|
|
Vaporization |
the change of state from liquid to a gas. |
