What are the four classical states of matter?
Solid, liquid, gas, and plasma.
Describe the arrangement and motion of particles in a solid.
Particles are tightly packed in fixed positions and can only vibrate.
Why does a solid have a definite shape and volume?
Because its particles are held in fixed positions by strong forces, so they cannot move freely.
What is the difference between a crystalline solid and an amorphous solid?
Crystalline solids have a regularly ordered, repeating pattern; amorphous solids lack long-range order.
How do particles behave in a liquid?
Particles are close together but can move past one another, allowing the liquid to flow.
Why does a liquid have a fixed volume but not a fixed shape?
Particles are close enough to maintain volume but can move, so the liquid takes the shape of its container.
Describe the arrangement and motion of particles in a gas.
Particles are far apart and move freely at high speeds, filling the container.
Why does a gas have no definite shape or volume?
Because particles are far apart and move freely, expanding to fill any container.
What is plasma?
A state similar to gas but containing charged particles (ions and free electrons) that respond to electric and magnetic fields.
What is the particle model?
A model that explains the properties of solids, liquids, and gases based on the arrangement, motion, and attraction of particles.
How does particle attraction differ between solids, liquids, and gases?
In solids, attraction is very strong; in liquids, moderate; in gases, very weak (negligible for ideal gases).
What is melting?
The process where a solid changes into a liquid when heated above its melting point.
What is freezing?
The process where a liquid changes into a solid when cooled below its freezing point.
What is sublimation?
The direct change of a solid into a gas without passing through the liquid state.
What is deposition?
The direct change of a gas into a solid without passing through the liquid state.
What is boiling?
The process where a liquid changes into a gas at its boiling point.
What is condensation?
The process where a gas changes into a liquid.
What is diffusion?
The movement of particles from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration, driven by random motion.
Why are gases more compressible than liquids?
Because gas particles are far apart with large empty spaces, allowing them to be pushed closer together.
Why is water an exception when comparing volumes of solid and liquid?
Water expands upon freezing, so ice (solid) has a larger volume than liquid water.
What is a vapor?
A gas below its critical temperature that can be liquefied by compression alone.
What is a supercritical fluid?
A substance at temperature and pressure above its critical point, where liquid and gas phases are indistinguishable.
What is the critical temperature of a liquid?
The highest temperature at which the liquid can exist; above it, the substance becomes a gas regardless of pressure.
