2

Changes of State

Physical changes in matter that involve a change in state, such as melting, evaporating, freezing, condensing, and sublimation.

New cards
3

Internal Energy

The energy stored by particles within a system, including kinetic energy and potential energy.

New cards
4

Heating a System

Increasing the energy of particles within a system, either by raising the temperature or causing a change of state.

New cards
5

Specific Heat Capacity

The amount of energy required to raise the temperature of 1kg of a substance by 1°C.

New cards
6

Specific Latent Heat

The amount of energy needed to change the state of 1kg of a substance without a change in temperature.

New cards
7

Pressure

The force exerted by gas molecules on the walls of their container.

New cards
8

Pressure in Gases

The relationship between pressure and volume in a gas, known as Boyle's law.

New cards
9

Increasing the Pressure of a Gas

Doing work on a gas by compressing or expanding it, leading to an increase in pressure and temperature.

New cards
10

Adding more particles to a fixed volume

Increasing the number of particles in a fixed volume, resulting in more collisions and an increase
