1

Particle

One of the very small parts of matter.

New cards
2

Kinetic theory

The theory that all matter consists of tiny particles (atoms, ions, molecules) that are moving constantly- they never stop.

3

Collision

An instant of one moving object striking violently against another.

<p>An instant of one moving object striking violently against another.</p>
New cards
4

Elastic collision

When objects collide to each other and they are able to resume their normal shapes spontaneously, after contraction.

5

Gas pressure

The force exerted by a gas on a surface.

<p>The force exerted by a gas on a surface.</p>
New cards
6

Vacuum

An empty space with no atoms or molecules in it, so it has no pressure.

<p>An empty space with no atoms or molecules in it, so it has no pressure.</p>

7

Atmospheric pressure

All the air that surrounds the Earth to a height about 12km.

<p>All the air that surrounds the Earth to a height about 12km.</p>

Kinetic energy

The (movement) energy an object has due to its motion.

<p>The (movement) energy an object has due to its motion.</p>

Barometer

A device that measures air pressure and shows when the weather is likely to change

Vapor

A gas that forms above a liquid surface due to the evaporation of liquid particles.

<p>A gas that forms above a liquid surface due to the evaporation of liquid particles.</p>
New cards
12

Evaporate

A form of vaporization occurs at lower temperature, where only a small proportion of particles near the surface have enough energy to enter the gas phase.

<p>A form of vaporization occurs at lower temperature, where only a small proportion of particles near the surface have enough energy to enter the gas phase.</p>

13

Vaporize

The conversion of a liquid into a gas.

<p>The conversion of a liquid into a gas.</p>
New cards
14

Boil

A form of vaporization occurs when the temperature is high enough that particles throughout the liquid have enough kinetic energy to enter the gas phase.

<p>A form of vaporization occurs when the temperature is high enough that particles throughout the liquid have enough kinetic energy to enter the gas phase.</p>

15

Condense

The conversion of a gas into a liquid.

<p>The conversion of a gas into a liquid.</p>
New cards
16

Vapor pressure

The force exerted by a gas (vapor) above a liquid surface due to particle collision.

<p>The force exerted by a gas (vapor) above a liquid surface due to particle collision.</p>
New cards
17

Dynamic equilibrium

A situation in which two opposite chemical reactions happen at the same speed (rate of evaporation = rate of condensation).
