13.1-13.3 Phases of Matter

The state of matter having no definite shape or volume.

• solid
• liquid
• gas

As a material is heated, it's particles....

• get smaller
• slow down
• get cooler
• move more quickly

The state of matter with definite volume but no definite shape.

• solid
• liquid 
• gas

What state of matter forms a geometric pattern?  It is also the coldest state of matter.

• solid
• liquid
• gas

A solid whose name comes from a Greek word meaning "without form."

• colloid
• amorphous
• plasma
• liquid crystals

A measure of the average kinetic energy of the particles in a sample of matter.

• temperature
• meter
• second

Particles are tightly packed together, usually into geometric shapes.

• Bose-Einstein Condensate

• Solid

• Liquid

• Gas

• Plasma

What happens to the average kinetic energy of matter when it is heated?

• It increases

• It stays the same

• It decreases

• It cannot be determined

The energy of an object as it is in motion is defined as

• Potential Energy

• Elastic Energy

• Electric Energy

• Kinetic Energy

Which of the following states of matter has the LOWEST level of energy?

• Solid
