1. States of Matter:
Solid: Particles are packed closely
together, vibrating in place.
Solids have a fixed volume &
shape.
Liquid: The attractive forces between
particles are weaker than in a
solid. Liquids have a definite
volume, but not a definite shape.

2. States of Matter:
Gas: Particles are much farther apart
than in liquid or a solid, the
attraction forces between them are
weak. Gases do not have definite
shape or volume.
Plasma: Is matter consisting of (+) & (-)
charged particles. Do not have
a definite shape or volume.
Is the most common state of matter in the universe (The stars, including the Sun contain plasma).

3. Phase Changes:
Melting: Is the process by which the
substance changes from solid
to liquid.
The temperature at which this process occurs is called melting point.
Freezing: Is the process by which the
substance changes from
liquid to solid.
The temperature at which this process occurs is called freezing point.

5. Phase Changes:
Boiling: Is the process by which the
substance changes from
liquid to gas.
The temperature at which this process occurs is called boiling point.
Condensation: Is the process by which
the substance changes from
gas to liquid.

7. Phase Changes:
Sublimation: Is the process by which
the substance changes
from solid to gas.
Deposition: Is the process by which the
substance changes from
gas to solid.

10. Vaporization
The conversion of a liquid to a gas or vapor is called vaporization (evaporation or boiling):
1) Evaporation: When this conversion occurs at the surface of a liquid at room temperature.
2) Boiling occurs in the entire mass of a liquid, this process require more thermal energy than evaporation.

11. evaporation is a cooling process.
As evaporation occurs, the particles with the highest kinetic energy tend to escape first.
As evaporation takes place, the liquid’s temperature decreases because the particles take the energy from its surrounding to become to gas, then
evaporation is a cooling process.

12. You can observe the effects of evaporative cooling on hot days.
When you perspire, water molecules in your perspiration absorb heat from your body and evaporate from the skin’s surface.
This evaporation leaves the remaining perspiration cooler.
* The perspiration that remains cools you further by absorbing more body heat.
