What type of system is this and why?

Drag the characteristics or details to the correct state of matter.

has a definite volume but no defined shape
particles collide and move everywhere
particles vibrate in a fixed position
are somewhat close together but can move freely
has a defined shape and volume
has a volume that can change

Solid
Liquid
Gas

Which change of state happens when a solid gains energy and changes into a liquid?

melting

condensation

vaporization

freezing

Which change of state happens when a gas loses energy and changes into a liquid?

vaporization

condensation

melting

freezing

Which change of state happens when a liquid loses energy and changes into a solid?

melting

vaporization

Which change of state happens when a liquid gains energy and changes into a gas?

freezing

What happens to the particles of a substance when the substance freezes?

They stop moving.

They slow down.

They stay the same.

They speed up.

Before doctors draw your blood for a blood test, they wipe alcohol on your skin. The alcohol quickly disappears. What happened and why?

Vaporization occurred because the particles gained thermal energy from your skin.

Melting occurred because the particles move faster and gained thermal energy.

Melting occurred beause the particles slowed down and came into closer contact.

Vaporization occurred because the particles lose thermal energy to the environment.

When a substance freezes, its particles stop moving.

True

False

If the temperature of water increases that means

the water particles will have less kinetic energy.

the water particles will have more kinetic energy.

the water particles will have more volume.

the water particles will have more mass.

Which of the following happen because of an increase in thermal energy/temperature? (Select all that apply)

Which of the following happen because of a decrease in thermal energy/temperature? (Select all that apply)

When a person get an injury, sometimes they put a cold ice pack on the body part to reduce the swelling. According to what you learned about energy transfer, which way does the thermal energy move?

Energy moves from the ice pack to the warm body part.

There is no energy transfer between the warm body part and ice pack.

Energy moves back and forth between the warm body part and ice pack.

Energy moves from the warm body part to the ice pack.

Pick one state of matter (solid, liquid, or gas) and draw a model of its particles.

Match the sytem to the characteristics.
