STATES OF MATTER

AND
CHANGES OF STATE
SOLID, LIQUID AND GAS
 • 1. PARTICLES ARE TIGHTLY
ARRANGED. NO SPACE
SOLID BETWEEN ATOMS
• 2. DEFINITE SHAPE
• 3. DEFINITE VOLUME
• 4. PARTICLES VIBRATE NEXT TO
EACH OTHER
 • 1. PARTICLES HAVE SOME SPACE
BETWEEN.
LIQUID • 2. DEFINITE VOLUME
• 3. NO DEFINITE SHAPE
• 4. PARTICLE MOVEMENT IS A
SLIDING ACTION PAST EACH
OTHER
 • 1.PARTICLE SPACING IS VERY FAR
APART
GAS • 2. NO DEFINITE SHAPE
• 3. NO DEFINITE VOLUME
• 4. PARTICLE MOVEMENT IS VERY
FAST AND MAY OR MAY NOT
COME IN CONTACT WITH EACH
OTHER
CHANGES OF STATE OF MATTER
IN ORDER FOR A SOLID, LIQUID OR GAS TO CHANGE ITS
STATE OF MATTER HEAT ENERGY IS EITHER ADDED OR
SUBTRACTED
HOW DOES A SOLID,
LIQUID OR GAS
CHANGE ITS STATE
HEAT ENERGY
HAS TO BE
ADDED OR
SUBTRACTED
HEAT ENERGY ADDED TO A SOLID-MELTING OCCURS

KITCHEN MELTING
97˚F/16˚C POINTS MELTED GOLD
 HEAT ENERGY ADDED TO A LIQUID
EVAPORATION OR BOILING
MOLECULE MOTION IN EVAPORATION WATER EVAPORATING
BOILING WATER AND BOILING
COMPARISON OF BOILING AND EVAPORATION
 SUBLIMATION
A SOLID CHANGES INTO A GAS WITHOUT
BECOMING A LIQUID FIRST
DRY ICE SNOW SUBLIMATION DRY ICE
 WHEN HEAT ENERGY IS REMOVED
A GAS BECOMES A LIQUID
CONDENSATION

WATER VAPOR CONDENSING WATER VAPOR CONDENSING WATER VAPOR CONDENSING

ON SODA LITER ON GLASS ON PLANTS
 REMOVAL OF HEAT ENERGY FROM A LIQUID
FREEZING
THERE IS A SPECIFIC TEMP AT WHICH LIQUIDS
FREEZE
WATER FREEZING ALMOST IMMEDIATELY
THE LOWEST TEMPERATURE THAT IT IS POSSIBLE TO REACH
(O⁰K, -273.15⁰C, -459.67⁰F) IS CALLED
ABSOLUTE ZERO
 DEPOSITION
WHEN HEAT ENERGY IS REMOVED AND WATER
VAPOR CHANGES DIRECTLY INTO A SOLID
FROST SNOW FROST
WATER HAS A FREEZING POINT OF 0˚C AND A
MELTING POINT OF 0˚C

HOW IS THIS POSSIBLE???
