Study Notes
- The text discusses the states of matter: solids, liquids, gases, and plasma.
- Solids have a definite shape and fixed volume. They are rigid and have a high density.
- Liquids have no definite shape but a definite volume. They take the shape of their container and can be poured from one container to another. They have a higher density than gases.
- Gases have a very low density and are highly compressible. They can flow through pipes and have a definite volume but not a definite shape.
- Phase changes occur when a substance transitions from one state of matter to another. For example, ice melts to become water when heat is added, and water boils to become steam when more heat is added.
- Solid to gas transition is called sublimation, and an example is dry ice.
- Endothermic processes are those that need heat to occur, such as melting, vaporization, and sublimation.
- Exothermic processes are those that release heat when they occur, such as freezing, condensation, and deposition.
- Plasma is the fourth state of matter, an ionized gas. It conducts electricity and is present in places like the sun and neon signs.
- To create plasma, you can add heat or electricity to a gas. When the ions and electrons recombine, they emit light and heat energy.
