Phases of Matter

AB
PlasmaA superheated gas, rarely found on earth
Amorphous solidA solid that can slowly change it's shape over time
Crystalline solidA solid made up of crystals arranged in a repeated pattern
MeltingA SOLID changes to a LIQUID by INCREASING heat energy
FreezingA LIQUID changes to a SOLID by DECREASING heat energy
VaporizationLIQUID changes to a GAS by INCREASING heat energy
CondensationA GAS changes to a LIQUID by DECREASING heat energy
SublimationA SOLID changes directly to a GAS due to an EXTREME INCREASE in heat energy
EvaporationA type of vaporization that happens when a liquid SLOWLY heats and turns into a gas over a period of time
Melting pointThe temperature when a solid begins to turn into a liquid
Freezing pointThe temperature at which a liquid begins to turn into a solid
Boiling pointThe temperature when a liquid begins to turn into a gas
Solid's DENSITY/PARTICLE ARRANGMENTHIGH/TIGHTLY PACKED
Solid's ENERGY/PARTICLE MOVEMENTLOW/VIBRATING
Solid's SHAPEDEFINITE - does not need container to keep it's shape
Solid's VOLUMEDEFINITE - container does not determine the size of a solid
Liquid's DENSITY/PARTICLE ARRANGEMENTMEDIUM/ LOOSELY PACKED
Liquid's ENERGY/PARTICLE MOVEMENTMEDIUM/ROLL AROUND EACH OTHER
Liquid's SHAPECHANGING - it's shape depends on shape of container
Liquid's VOLUMEDEFINITE - always takes up the same amount of space, no matter it's shape or container
Gas's DENSITY/PARTICLE ARRANGEMENTLOW/NOT TOUCHING
Gas's ENERGY/PARTICLE MOVEMENTHIGH/RAPIDLY COLLIDING
Gas's SHAPECHANGING - it needs container to keep it's shape
Gas's VOLUMECHANGING - it expands to fit the size of it's container
VOLUMEsize or amount of space matter takes up
