Phases of Matter and Phase Changes
Across
- 2. When matter changes from one state to another, depends on the movement of particles
- 6. The movement of thermal energy from a hotter substance to a cooler one
- 8. Phase of matter with no definite shape or volume and very separated particles moving at high speeds
- 10. Phase of matter with definite volume and particles that move and take the shape of their container
- 12. Solid to liquid
- 15. The uneven forces acting upon the surface of a liquid
- 17. When liquid molecules gain energy, break their attractions, and become a gas
- 18. When warm matter rises and cooler matter falls (Convection currents)
- 19. A liquid's resistance to flow
- 20. Phase of matter with definite shape and volume with particles that vibrate but do not move from place to place
Down
- 1. Liquid to solid
- 3. Solid to gas, when solid molecules move so fast that they overcome their attractions and become a gas
- 4. Direct contact between a heat source and matter
- 5. Anything that has mass and takes up space
- 7. When gas molecules lose energy and come together to form a liquid
- 9. When molecules can no longer move
- 11. Gas to solid (Frost)
- 13. The average kinetic energy of individual particles
- 14. An ionized gas
- 16. Heat travels through a vacuum
