Through Sublimation
How do you go from Gas to Solid?
Through Deposition
How are particles represented?
Small Solid Spheres
How do you calculate Density?
Density = Mass / Volume
What are the units for Density?
Kilograms per metre cubed (kg/m^3)
What are the units for Mass?
Kilograms (kg)
What are the units for Volume?
Metres cubed (m^3)
What does density tell you about a substance?
The amount of matter per unit volume
What state of matter has the highest density?
Solid
If you increase the temperature what happens to gas pressure?
Increases
If you decrease the temperature what happens to gas pressure?
Decreases
If you increase the volume what happens to gas pressure?
Decreases
If you decrease the volume what happens to gas pressure?
Increases
What is the relationship between boiling point and pressure?
The higher the pressure, the higher the boiling point
