Q

the particle model

A

-all substances are made of tiny particles too small to be seen
-particles are always in motion
-particles have spaces in between them
The motion of particles increases as temperature increases and decreases as temperature decreases. *temperature indicates the average speed of particles motion in a substance

Q

Particle theory of matter

A
  1. All matter is made up of tiny particles
    2.particles are allways moving
    3.ther are spaces between particles
    4.particles of a substance have attractive forces between them
    5.temperature effects the speed of particles
    A. Adding heat- increases speed of particles
    B. Removing heat (cooling) - decreases speed of particles

Q

Contract

A

Decrease in volume

17
Q

Expand

A

Increase in volume(temp changes causes things to expand)

18
Q

Heated

A

Usually causes expansion

19
Q

Cooled

A

Usually causes contraction

20
Q

Heat capacity

A

Amount of thermal energy ( warms or cools the object bye one degrees Celsius

21
Q

Specific heat capacity

A

Amount of thermal energy that warms or cools the object by one gram of a material by one degree Celsius

22
Q

Melt

A

Turn from a solid to a liquid

23
Q

Freeze

A

From a liquid to a solid

24
Q

Evaporate

A

Turn from a liquid to a gas

25
Condense
Turn from a gas to a liquid
26
Sublimation
Turn from a solid to a gas or a gas to a solid
27
Conduction
Is heat transfer through a matter by physical contact
28
Convection
Is the heat transfer by the movement of a fluid
29
Radiation
Occurs when microwaves infrared radiation(visible light or another form of electromagnetic radiation
30
Energy source
An object or material that can transfer its energy to another objects
31
Radiation
The transfer of energy without any movement of matter
32
Radiant energy
Also known as electromagnetic radiation
33
All forms of radiant energy
-They behave like waves - they can be absorbed and reflected by objects - the travel across empty space at the same very high speed 300000 km/s
34
Thermal conduction
The process of transferring thermal energy though direct collisions between particles
35
Heat insulators
Are very poor conductors
36
Fluid
Materials that can be poured or the floe from place to place
37
Convection
A warm fluid that moves around place to place carrying thermal energy with it
38
Convection current
A moving fluid
