2.             These particles are in constant random motion.

3.             These particles are colliding with each other and the walls of their container.

 

The state of a sample of matter depends on its temperature.  The _______ the temperature, the _________ the particles move.  In science, temperature is the average ________ energy in the substance.

 

KE is energy of __________.

 

PE is __________ energy.

The particles in a solid are very ___________ .  They vibrate or move slowly against each other.  Solids have a __________ shape and a         

 ____________  volume.

 

The temperature at which a solid begins to liquefy is called the ________________.

 

Liquids have  a __________ volume but _____               shape.  The particles are _____________ but have enough energy to move over and around one another.

 

The amount of energy required to change a substance from a solid phase to a liquid phase is called the __________________.

 

A gas has__________ volume and __________  shape.  They expand or contract to fill the space available to them.  They move in all directions until they have spread evenly throughout their container.  This is called ___________ and happens quicker in gases than liquids and solids.

 

When a liquid becomes a gas, it is called ______________.  This can happen in two ways - ____________ and _____________.  _______________ occurs at the surface of a liquid and temperatures below the boiling point.

 

___________ occurs throughout the liquid.  The amount of energy needed to change a liquid to a gas is called the _________________.

The most common state of matter in the universe is___________.  It is found in the sun and the stars.  Plasma is a ____________ mixture of positively and negatively charged particles.

 

It is also found in lightning bolts, neon, fluorescent tubes, and auroras.

 

When a solid changes directly to a gas, it is called _____________.

 

When a gas changes to a liquid, this is called _____________.

 

Almost all matter expands as it is heated and contracts when it cools.  This is called ___________.  So as a sample of matter is heated, its particles move more___________ .

 

A common example of expansion in liquids is in ____________.  An example of expansion in gases is _______________.

 

Water is an exception to the rule.  When it is cooled down to about 4 C, it _________.  It is also _______ dense than liquid water.

 

Some substances have unusual behavior when changing states.

In most solids, the particles are arranged in repeating geometric patterns.  They are called  __________.                                       

Some materials appear to be solids but are not made of crystals.  They are often called ____________ solids.  Some scientists think they should be classified as a thick liquid.  Two examples are __________ and ____________.

 

Liquid crystals start to flow during the melting phase, but they do not lose their ___________ ____________ completely.  They are place in classes depending on the ________ they maintain.  They are used in _________, _________, and ______________.  They are highly responsive to ________________ and _______________.

Section 2 – Properties of Fluids

 

Objective

·       Explain Archimedes’ principle, Pascal’s principle, and Bernoulli’s principle and describe a way that they could be applied.

 

__________ is the ability of a fluid – a liquid of gas – to exert an upward force on an object immersed in it.  This force is called_________.

 

The amount of buoyant force determines whether an object will _____ or ______.  P. 497, Figure 13

 

 _________ Principle says that the buoyant force on an object in a fluid is _______ to the weight of the liquid displaced by the object.  __________ also plays a part in whether an object will sink or float.  An object will _______ if its density is _______ than the density of the fluid it is placed in.

 

___________Principle says that pressure applied to a fluid is transmitted unchanged throughout the fluid.

 

Hydraulic machines make use of Pascal’s principle.  Toothpaste tubes also make use of this principle.

 

The following formula can be used to calculate pressure.

 

                             P  =   F/A

 

If you set two pressures equal to each other, you can use this formula –

 

                             F1   =     F2

                             A1           A2

 

p. 499 Math Skills

 

 

As the velocity of a fluid increases, the pressure exerted by the fluid decreases is ____________principle.

 

Bernoulli’s principle explains why __________.

 

The air traveling over the top of the wing travels __________ than the air passing below it.  The pressure above the wing is ________ than the pressure below it.  This causes ______.

Another property exhibited by a fluid is its tendency to flow.  A resistance to flow by a fluid is called _____________.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Section 3 – Behavior of Gases

 

Objectives

·       Explain how a gas exerts pressure on its container. 

·       Explain how a gas is affected when pressure, temperature, or volume is changed.

 

 

The amount of force exerted per unit of area is ____________ .

 

               P = F/A            p=pressure, f=force,

                                         a=area

 

At sea level, atmospheric pressure is 101.3 kPa, about the weight of a large truck.  The ______ is the unit of pressure.  One pascal of pressure is 1 N/m2.  The higher up you go in the atmosphere, the _______ pressure you have.

 

If you _________ the volume of a container of gas, the pressure of the gas will __________, if temperature doesn’t change.  This is________ law.  This is an inverse proportion.  P. 504, Figure 21.

 

You can use the following equation to find an unknown volume or pressure –

 

                      P1V1  =  P2V2

 

 

p. 505 Math Skills

 

The idea that the volume of a gas _________ with ___________ temperature provided the pressure does not change is _________law.  This is a direct proportion.

 

This can be explained using the kinetic theory of matter.  As a gas is heated, its particles move _________ and _________ and its temperature ___________.  Because the particles move ________, they strike the walls of the container more often and with more force.  In the case of a balloon, its walls have room to expand and volume ____________.

 

Using his law, Charles was able to calculate the temperature at which a gas would have a volume of zero and all particle motion would stop.  It was –273oC or 0K (absolute zero).

 

Use the following formula to calculate an unknown volume or temperature for Charles’s Law –

 

                           V1   =     V2

                           T1           T2

 

The temperature has to be in units of Kelvin.

p. 507, Skill Builder

 

If you increase temperature and volume can’t increase, pressure will increase to a point where the container explodes.
