3) Solids, Liquids, Gases

What is kinetic energy?

the energy of an object in motion

What is the energy of an object in motion?

kinetic energy

What does the state of matter depend on?

kinetic energy of particles and strength of attraction between particles

What depends on kinetic energy of particles and strength of attraction between particles?

the state of matter

What has definite shape and volume, the lowest kinetic energy, and the strongest interactions between particles?

solids

What characteristics do solids have?

definite shape and volume, the lowest kinetic energy, and the strongest interactions between particles

What has definite volume of its container, a higher kinetic energy than solids, and particles can move due to weaker interactions?

liquids

What characteristics do liquids have?

definite volume of its container, a higher kinetic energy than solids, and particles can move due to weaker interactions

What takes the shape and volume of the container, has the highest kinetic energy, and particles are far apart because interactions are broken?

gas

What characteristics does gas have?

Takes shape and volume of container, has the highest kinetic energy, and particles are far apart because interactions are broken

What is the fourth state of matter?

plasma and ionized gas

Plasma and ionized gas is what?

the fourth state of matter

When does a phase change occur?

when particles have gained a lot of energy/heat and IMFs are weakened or broken

What occurs when particles have gained a lot of energy/heat and IMFs are weakened or broken?

a phase change

What happens in boiling?

the liquid system absorbs energy, breaks IMFs, and changes to the gas state

In what does the liquid system absorb energy, breaks IMFs, and changes to the gas state?

boiling

What is the boiling point?

the temperature at which at which a substance undergoes boiling

What is the temperature at which a substance undergoes boiling?

boiling point

What do stronger IMFs mean?

higher boiling point (more energy required)

What means a higher boiling point (more energy required)

stronger IMFs

What does the kinetic molecular theory state?

gases consists of a lot particles in constant random motion

What states that gases consists of a lot of particles in constant random motion?

the kinetic molecular theory
