Science 11
Solid
matter that has a definite shape and a definite volume
Liquid
is matter with definite volume but no definite shape
Viscosity
is measurement of liquid's resistance to flow
Surface Tension
the uneven forces acting on the particles on the surface of a liquid
gas
is a matter that has no definite volume and no definite shape
vapor
the gas state of a substance that is normally a solid or a liquid at room temperature
Kinetic energy
the energy an object has due to its motion
temperature
is a measure of the average kinetic energy of all the particles in an object
vaporization
the change in state of a liquid into a gas
evaporation
is vaporization that occurs only at the surface of a liquid
Condensation
the change of state from a gas to liquid
sublimation
the change of state from a solid to a gas without going through the liquid state
deposition
is the change of state of a gas to a solid without going through the liquid state
Kinetic molecular theory
is a explanation of how particles in matter behave
pressure
is the amount of force applied per unit of area
Boyle's Law
that pressure of a gas increases if the volume decreases and if the pressure of the gas decreases the volume increases
Charles's Law
States that the volume of a gas increases with increasing temperature if pressure is constant
