Questions and Answers

What occurs when gas particles reach a cold surface?

  • They lose energy and come closer together. (correct)
  • They become solid instantly.
  • They gain energy and move faster.
  • They escape from the surface as gas.
  • What is the result of removing heat energy from a liquid?

  • The particles can slide past one another more easily.
  • The particles eventually form a solid. (correct)
  • The particles escape as gas.
  • The particles vibrate more vigorously.
  • Which statement best describes the motion of particles in a gas?

  • They form fixed patterns similar to solids.
  • They are closely held together by strong forces.

    Study Notes

    States of Matter: Liquid, Gas, and Solid

    • Liquids have particles that touch each other, held together weakly.
    • Heat gives particles more energy, enabling some to escape into the gaseous state (evaporation/boiling).
    • Gas particles are free to move in any direction, no forces holding them together.
    • Gases become liquids through condensation, when particles lose energy and are attracted to each other.
    • Liquid particles can move and flow, but as heat energy is removed, they move slower.
    • When a liquid's particles lose enough energy, they vibrate in a fixed pattern, becoming a solid.
