Ch 2.2 Changes of State are physical changes.
2
Matter can change from one state to another
States of Matter: Solid (fixed shape & volume) Liquid (no fixed shape, fixed volume) Gas (no fixed shape, or volume) Changes in state are physical because it does not change the basic substance.
3
Arrangement & Movement
Energy Arrangement & Movement States of Matter (name the process) Gains energy Spread out; move faster Solid Liquid Solid Gas Liquid Gas Loses energy Closer together; move slower Gas Liquid Liquid Solid
4
Circle your level of understanding of these concepts:
5
Melting Melting: Process by which a solid becomes a liquid; gains energy. EX: Ice to liquid water. Bar of iron to liquid iron. Melting Point: lowest temperature at which a substance begins to melt. Solids vibrate faster the hotter it gets. Eventually they break loose and slide past each other, forming a liquid.
6
Circle your level of understanding of these concepts:
7
Freezing Freezing: process by which a liquid becomes a solid; loses energy. Can be room temperature Ex: candle wax Freezing Point: temperature at which a specific liquid becomes a solid. As temperature drops, particles lose energy and slow down. Eventually the attraction between particles cause them to become a solid.

Circle your level of understanding of these concepts:
9
Freezing Point vs. Melting Point.
Freezing Point and Melting Point are the same! At this temperature, substance can exist as a solid or a liquid. At temperatures below the melting/freezing point, the substance is a solid. At temperatures above the melting/freezing point, the substance is a liquid.
10
Circle your level of understanding of these concepts:
11
Evaporation Evaporation: process by which a liquid becomes a gas. (occurs at the surface); gains energy. As the temperature increases, the energy in a liquid increases. Particles move so fast, they escape from the liquid. Sublimation: Solid changes directly to gas. Ex: dry ice!
12
Circle your level of understanding of these concepts:
13
Boiling Boiling: Process by which a liquid becomes a gas (produces bubbles); gains energy. Boiling Point: temperature at which a liquid turns to a gas. Different substances boil at different temperatures.
14
Circle your level of understanding of these concepts:
15
Condensation Condensation: process by which gas changes into a liquid; loses energy. Ex: beads of water that form on a cold glass of iced tea.
