Back

Sublimation

Front

What happens to a truck's tires on long road trips due to temperature?

Back

Hot temperatures increase the pressure inside the tire.

Front

What occurs when a gas absorbs heat?

Back

The particles move faster.

Front

Define condensation in terms of phase changes.

Back

The process where gas turns into liquid.

Front

What is vaporization?

Back

The phase change from liquid to gas.

Front

Explain sublimation with an example.

Back

Sublimation is when a solid turns directly into a gas, like dry ice turning into carbon dioxide gas.

Front

What is the relationship between temperature and gas pressure?

Back

As temperature increases, gas pressure increases if volume is constant.

Front

What is deposition in phase changes?

Back

The process where gas turns directly into solid.
