Across
- 6. a force that pulls particles at the exposed surface of a liquid toward other liquid particles
- 10. changes a liquid to a gas, but it doesn’t involve boiling; occurs along the surface of a liquid
- 12. have a fixed volume and a fixed shape; particles are tightly packed together
- 13. the process in which a solid changes directly to a gas without going through the liquid state
- 14. different phases in which any given type of matter can exist; physical property of matter
- 16. the process in which a liquid changes to a solid
- 17. a liquid’s resistance to flowing
Down
- 1. the process in which water vapor or any other gas changes to a liquid
- 2. occurs whenever matter changes from one state to another; physical changes in matter that are reversible (do not change matter’s chemical makeup or chemical properties)
- 3. take both the volume and the shape of their container; particles can pull apart from each other, bump, and spread out
- 4. the amount of force pushing against a given area; created by the energy the ability to cause changes in matter; particles of matter either absorb or lose from state to state
- 5. have particles that are arranged in a regular repeating pattern that form crystals
- 7. the energy of moving matter; amount determines the state of matter
- 8. have a fixed volume but take the shape of their container; particles can slip past one another
- 9. the process in which a liquid boils and changes to a gas
- 11. lacks a fixed volume and a fixed shape; consists of charged particles called ions which can conduct electricity and respond to a magnetic field
- 15. the process in which a solid changes to a liquid
