Phases of matter
Fichas del conjunto (8)
- 1solidThe state of matter in which the particles vibrate in a fixed position, maintain a fixed shape and cannot be compressed.
- 2liquidThe state of matter in which particles are close to each other but free to roll around each other, does not maintain a fixed shape and can hardly be compressed.
- 3gasThe state of matter in which particles are free to move around quickly and spread far apart. Particles in this state of matter can easily be compressed.
- 4evaporationThe process in which particles change from liquid to gas
- 5condensationThe process by which particles change from a gas to a liquid
- 6meltingThe process by which solids change into liquids
- 7freezingAlso known as solidification, this is the process by which particles change from being a liquid into a solid
- 8sublimationThe process by which a solid goes straight into a gaseous phase without forming a liquid. This also works in reverse (solid to gas without being a liquid).
