States of Matter Exploration

What process changes a solid to a liquid?

• Condensation

• Sublimation

• Freezing

• Melting

What happens to a liquid when it turns into a gas?

• The liquid loses all its energy and disappears.

• The liquid turns into a solid without any energy change.

• The liquid molecules gain energy and transition into the gas phase.

• The liquid freezes and becomes solid.

What is the term for gas changing directly into a solid?

• Condensation

• Sublimation

• Deposition

• Evaporation

How does increasing temperature affect the state of matter?

• Increasing temperature decreases the energy of gas particles.

• Increasing temperature solidifies liquids into solids.

• Increasing temperature generally causes solids to melt into liquids, liquids to evaporate into gases, and increases the energy and movement of gas particles.

• Increasing temperature causes gases to condense into liquids.

Can you name an example of sublimation?

• Dry ice (solid carbon dioxide)

• Water boiling into steam

• Ice melting into water

• Sugar dissolving in water
