What are the three most common states of matter?

Solid, Liquid, and Gas

The particles that make up matter are in constant ______________.

Motion

Matter is made up of two kinds of particles: ____________ and ___________.

Atoms and molecules

No definite shape or volume

Gas

Has a definite volume and takes shape of its container

Liquid

Has a definite shape and volume

Solid

The most common state of matter in the world

Plasma

These solids have a very orderly, three-dimensional arrangement of particles in a repeating pattern

Crystalline

These solids have particles that are not arranged in a pattern.

Amorphous

A force that acts on particles of a liquid. Makes the particles "clump" together and is the reason dew forms on grass in the morning.

Surface Tension

Water has a higher surface tension than oil. Explain what that means?

Water particles clump together easier than gasoline.

A liquid's resistance to flow.

Viscosity.

A liquid that has tiny particles of a solid suspended in it.

Colloid.

What is the most common colloid? Hint - Three letters.

Gel

Is gas a fluid?

Yes

Where will you find gas in the body?

Air in the lungs

Where will you find liquid in the body?

Water, blood.

Where will you find a solid in the body?

Bones

Almost all matter ________ when it gets hotter and __________ contracts when it gets cooler. Hint - Opposites

Expands, contracts

Liquids are fluid, but not ___________.

Compressible

Why is ice less dense than water? How can you tell?

When ice freezes it becomes less dense and changes volume. The particles inside contract and make the ice be able to float in water.

A measure of how fast particles in an object are moving.

Temperature

The amount of space an object takes up.

Volume

Particles of gas can be ___________.

Compressed.

The amount of force exerted on a given area of surface.

Pressure

Boyle's Law states that there is an inverse relationship between the pressure and volume of a gas. So, if you decrease the volume of a container of a gas, the pressure will increase. The temperature is constant.

READ OVER THIS AS MANY TIMES AS POSSIBLE.

Charles' Law states that the temperature of a gas increases with an increase in volume. The pressure is constant.

FREAKING MEMORIZE THIS.

What does 'scuba' mean?

Self Contained Underwater Breathing Apparatus

What are air thermometers usually filled with?

Mercury or Colored Alcohol

What was the flammable gas that caused the Hindenburg to explode?

Hydrogen

What was the date of the Hindenburg crash?

May 6, 1937

What is the SI unit for pressure?

Pascal (Pa)

What are the five major changes in state?

Melting, freezing, evaporating, condensation, and sublimating

The particles in liquid have more __________ than particles in ice.

Energy

The particles in steam have more _____________ than particles in liquid water.

Energy

To change a substance from one state to another heat must be added or __________.

Removed.

An Endothermic reaction occurs when energy is gained by a substance.

An Exothermic reaction occurs when energy is removed from a substance.

Melting (heat is getting added). Endo or Exo?

Endo.

Freezing (heat is getting taken away). Endo or Exo?

Exo.

(Endo (In) thermic (Heat))

(Exo (out) thermic (heat))

Is gallium (Ga) a metal?

Yes

What is unique about gallium?

Because of it's low-melting point it is able to melt in your hand, and turn back into a solid in a matter of minutes.

Is mercury (Hg) a metal?

Yes

What is unique about Mercury?

It is always a metal and it is able to be broken up into smaller particles, or pieces.

The change of a liquid to vapor, or gas, throughout the liquid.

Boiling

At which temperature (Celsius) does water normally boil at?

100 degrees Celsius

At which temperature (Celsius) does water boil at in Denver, Colorado? Why?

95 degrees Celsius; Because the pressure is lessened at a higher altitude.

What elements are found in antiperspirant?

Aluminum and zinc.

What is carbon dioxide in a solid state called?

Dry Ice

The ___________ Theory of Matter explains change in state.

Kinetic.

Is ice able to get colder once it freezes?

Yes, the particles are always able to get closer together.

When a liquid evaporates, the molecules become a vapor a the surface only. When a liquid boils, the molecules become a vapor __________ the liquid.

Throughout the liquid
