Chapter 1; Matter, Energy and Measurement Flashcards
(93 cards)
In the solid state, particles of matter are…
Close together and in an ordered arrangement
In the liquid state, particles are in a…
Disordered arrangement but interacting with other particles
In the gas state, particles are…
Far apart, interacting only during the occasional collision
Energy is […] to do work
Capacity
Work is an act of moving an object against an […] force
Opposing
what of matter allows it to move at different levels of speed
energy of that matter
what can energy be
kinetic or potential
what is kinetic energy
the energy of motion
what is potential energy
stored energy;
what can happen
at what levels can kinetics energy of motion levels be described as
macro scale
atomic scale
what is an example of energy of motion for the macro scale and atomic scale
moving car
and
particles in motion
what is the order of mass states in order of greater kinetic energy/motion
gas state >
liquid state >
solid state
temperature is measure of average […] energy of particles of matter
Kinetic
does higher kinetic energy have higher or lower temperature
higher
Does lower kinetic energy have higher or lower temperature
lower
does a faster moving object have more or less energy than a slower moving object
more kinetic energy
heat is kinetic energy that is transferred from matter at higher temperature to matter at lower temperature
Yes
heat ALWAYS flows from [hot to cold or cold to hot]
hot to cold
e.g. hot coffee particles will transfer their kinetic energy to ice cube, who will absorb it and temp rise, while hot coffee temp lowers.
reach equilibrium
is high temperature hot or cold?
hot
is low temperature hot or cold?
cold
High potential energy is…
unstable
Low potential energy is stable or unstable,?
Stable
matter has potential energy as a result of its…
position or composition
some substances are […] in potential energy (less stable) and other substances are […] in energy (more stable) due to the nature of their composition
