A liquid can change shape, but it can not change its volume.

A solid takes up its own shape.

Gas is the air or something that you can breathe in.

Plasma is gas that becomes ionized.

Energy is the ability to do work.

Thermal energy is the KE of an object’s atoms.

Evaporation is the process of which a liquid becomes a gas.

Sublimation is when a solid instantly becomes a gas.

Condensation is when a gas turns into a liquid.

Crystalline solid have an orderly arrangement of atoms or molecules.

An amorphous solid is composed of atoms or molecules that are in no order.

Surface tension is the force acting on the particles at the surface of the liquid.

Kinetic energy is the energy of motion.

Heat causes the temperature of a substance to change.

An endothermic change is when changes require energy.

Exothermic change is when energy is released from the substance as it changes.

A fluid is a no solid state of matter like gases and liquids.

Buoyant Force is the force that keeps things from sinking into water.

Pressure is the amount of force exerted in a given area.

Archimedes’ principle is that the buoyant force is equal to the volume of the fluid.

Pascal is the SI unit for pressure.

Pascal’s principle is the principal that states a fluid in equilibrium contained in a vessel exerts a pressure of equal intensity in all direction.

Viscosity is the resistance of a gas or liquid to flow.

Boyle’s law is the law that states that for a fixed amount of gas at a constant temperature, the volume of the gas increases as the pressure decreases.
