sublimation
Chemical chnage
A change that occurs when one or more substances change into entirely new substances with different properties.
Solute
A substance that is dissolved in a solution.
heat of fusion
Amount of energy required to change a substance from the solid phase to the liquid phase.
condensation
Gas to liquid
evaporation
Liquid to gas
sublimation
Solid to gas
heat of vaporization
The amount of energy required for the liquid at its boiling point to become a gas
Thermal decomposition
The breaking up of a chemical substance with heat into at least two chemical substances.
freezing point
The temperature at which a liquid changes into a solid the temperature at which a liquid changes to a solid
absolute zero
The temperature at which no more energy can be removed from matter
phyiscal change
a change in matter that does not involve a change in the identity of the substance
convection current
a current caused by the rising of heated fluid and sinking of cooled fluid
Deposition
gas to solid
colligative properties
properties of a solution that depend only on the number of particles dissolved in it, not the properties of the particles themselves. The main ones are boiling point elevation and freezing point depression.
Expansion
the act of increasing (something) in size or volume or quantity or scope
kinetic energy
the energy an object has due to its motion
Sublimation
the process in which a solid changes directly into a gas
contraction
the process of becoming smaller
melting point
the temperature at which a given solid will melt.
