states of matter

Question 1

what volumes of state of matter are equal?

Answer 1

liquids and solids

Question 2

how are the particles of gas spaced out?

Answer 2

in three dimensions- 10x10x10
so they are 1000 times less dense then solids and liquids but can be compressed into a smaller space

Question 3

what does the energy imparted onto ice do to it to melt?

Answer 3

it speeds up the vibrations until it breaks the rigid bonds causing them to break

Question 4

what is the state of solid to liquid called?

Answer 4

melting

Question 5

what is the state change of liquid to gas called?

Answer 5

evaporation or boiling

Question 6

how does evaporation work?

Answer 6

the particles nearest to the surface of a liquid sometimes have enough energy to shoot up and not return to the liquid. this in turn causes the quantity of the liquid to decrease.

Question 7

what is the difference between boiling and evaporation?

Answer 7

boiling is the sped up version of evaporation. this is because in boiling energy (heat) id applied directly to the liquid causing the particles to shoot up quicker

Question 8

at what temperature in water does it change from a solid to a liquid?

Answer 8

0°C

Question 9

what temperature does liquid change to gas?

Answer 9

100°C
