Across
  1. 2. _______ tension; a measure of the inward pull by particles in the interior
  2. 5. _______ point; temperature at which a liquid is converted into a crystalline solid
  3. 7. an instrument used to measure atmospheric pressure
  4. 8. _______ diagram; a graph of pressure versus temperature that shows in which phase a substance exists under different conditions of temperature and pressure.
  5. 13. _______ force; weak forces that result from temporary shifts in the density of electrons in electron clouds. Sometimes called London forces after the German-American physicist who first described them.
  6. 16. Graham's law of __________; states that the rate of effusion for a gas is inversely proportional to the square root of its molar mass
  7. 17. _______ solid; particles are not arranged in a regular, repeating pattern.
  8. 18. a measure of the average kinetic energy of the particles in a sample of matter
  9. 19. _______ point; the temperature at which the vapor pressure of a liquid equals the external or atmospheric pressure
  10. 21. process by which a liquid changes to a gas or vapor
  11. 22. process by which a substance changes from a gas or vapor to a solid without first becoming a liquid
  12. 23. kinetic _________ theory; describes the behavior of matter in terms of particles in motion
  13. 25. Dalton's law of __________ pressures; total pressure of a mixture of gases is equal to the sum of the pressures of all the gases in the mixture
  14. 26. _______ bond; a dipole-dipole attraction that occurs between molecules containing a hydrogen atom bonded to a small, highly electronegative atom with at least one lone electron pair.
  15. 28. _______ pressure; pressure exerted by a vapor over a liquid
Down
  1. 1. _______ point; temperature at which the forces holding its crystal lattice together are broken and it becomes a liquid
  2. 3. force per unit area
  3. 4. SI unit of pressure... equal to a force of one newton per square meter.
  4. 6. the average air pressure at sea level
  5. 9. An element that exists in different forms at the same state-solid, liquid, or gas
  6. 10. the process of vaporization occurring only at the surface of a liquid.
  7. 11. compounds that lower the surface tension of water
  8. 12. a measure of the resistance of a liquid to flow
  9. 13. term used to describe the movement of one material through another
  10. 14. process by which a gas or a vapor becomes a liquid
  11. 15. _________ collision; one in which no kinetic energy is lost
  12. 18. _______ point; the point on a phase diagram that represents the temperature and pressure at which three phases of a substance can coexist.
  13. 20. _______ solid; a solid whose atoms, ions, or molecules are arranged in an orderly, geometric structure.
  14. 24. _______ cell; the smallest arrangement of atoms in a crystal lattice. It has the same symmetry as the whole crystal
  15. 27. _______ - _______ force; attractions between oppositely charged regions of polar molecules
