States of Matter

What is a gas?

• A state of matter where particles are tightly packed and vibrate in place.

• A state of matter where particles are far apart and move freely, filling the entire space available.

• A state of matter that has a definite shape and volume.

• A state of matter that can only exist at extremely low temperatures.

What happens to a liquid when it is heated?

• It can freeze and become a solid.

• It can evaporate and change into a gas.

• It can remain unchanged.

• It can turn into a different liquid.

What is the effect of temperature on the state of matter?

• Increasing temperature can change solids to liquids and liquids to gases; decreasing temperature can change gases to liquids and liquids to solids.

• Temperature has no effect on the state of matter.

• Increasing temperature only affects solids, not liquids or gases.

• Decreasing temperature only affects gases, not liquids or solids.

What is condensation?

• The process of a gas turning into a liquid when cooled.

• The process of a liquid turning into a gas when heated.

• The process of a solid turning into a liquid when heated.

• The process of a gas expanding into a vacuum.

What is a liquid?

• A state of matter where particles are far apart and can move freely, filling the entire volume of their container.

• A state of matter where particles are close together but can move past each other, taking the shape of their container.

• A state of matter that has a definite shape and volume, with particles tightly packed together.

• A state of matter that can exist in solid, liquid, or gas forms depending on temperature and pressure.

What is freezing?

• The process of a liquid turning into a solid when cooled.

• The process of a solid turning into a liquid when heated.

• The process of a gas turning into a liquid when cooled.

• The process of a liquid evaporating into a gas when heated.

What happens to a solid when it is heated?

• It can melt and change into a liquid.

• It becomes a gas immediately.

• It remains unchanged.

• It turns into a powder.

What are the three states of matter?

• Solid, Liquid, Gas

• Solid, Liquid, Plasma

• Solid, Gas, Vapor

• Liquid, Gas, Mist

How do particles behave in a gas?

• Particles move slowly and are close together.

• Particles move quickly and are far apart from each other.

• Particles are stationary and tightly packed.

• Particles move in a fixed position and do not interact.

How do particles behave in a solid?

• Particles move freely and are loosely packed.

• Particles vibrate in place and are tightly packed.

• Particles are in a gaseous state and spread out.

• Particles flow easily and are not fixed in position.
