• liquid

Sublimation is _____________ .

• a phase change from a solid to liquid to a gas.

• a phase change from a solid to a liquid.

• a phase change from a gas to a solid.

The type of energy which has the GREATEST IMPACT on the state of matter is _________________ energy.

• gravitational

• sound

• radiant

• thermal

How does the addition of thermal energy relate to the molecules in a substance?

• As the thermal energy is added the molecules slow down and move closer together.

• As the thermal energy is added ALL solids turn to liquid then to gas.

• As the thermal energy is added the molecules get excited and move farther apart.

• As the thermal energy is added ALL gases turn into liquids.
