speed up and move closer

speed up and move farther apart
c)
slow down and move closer together
d)
slow down and move farther apart

has a definite volume but no definite shape
c)
has fast-moving particles
4.
What can be determined by measuring the speed of molecules?
a)
volume
b)
density
c)
pressure
d)
temperature
5.
What happens when thermal energy is taken away from particles?
a)
They move faster and farther apart
b)
They move slower and closer together
6.
The phase of matter in which the atoms are moving the fastest is
a)
solid
b)
liquid
c)
gas
7.
What best describes the motion of atoms in a solid? 
a)
vibrating slowly in place
b)
sliding past each other
c)
moving rapidly in all directions
8.
The phase change from water vapor to liquid water is known as...
a)
evaporation
b)
precipitation
c)
condensation
d)
sublimation
9.

What must happen for molecules to move slower?

a)

Kinetic energy is not changing. Temperature decreases.

b)

Kinetic energy and temperature depend on the molecules.

c)

Kinetic energy is decreasing and temperature is decreasing.

d)

Kinetic energy is decreasing and temperature is increasing.

10.

Molecules are always moving no matter what phase they are in: solid, liquid, gas.

a)

True

b)

False

11.

What would be a reason for a phase change to occur in one substance and not another substance even if both substances began at the same phase and were transferred the same amount of energy?

a)

The molecular attraction of one of the substances was weaker than the other substance causing phase change to occur.

b)

The molecular attraction of both substances were the same causing phase change to occur in one of them.

c)

The molecular attraction of one of the substances was stronger than the other substance causing phase change to occur.

d)

Phase change can not occur in one substance and not the other because they both started in the same phase.

12.

In order to increase the speed of a substance's molecules, someone must...

a)

transfer energy into the substance.

b)

transfer energy out of the substance.

c)

lower the temperature of the substance.

d)

keep the temperature the same for the substance.

13.

Which options are correct about molecular attraction and freedom of movement?

a)

High molecular attraction = High freedom of movement

b)

Low molecular attraction = Low freedom of movement

c)

Low molecular attraction = High freedom of movement

d)

These two vocabulary words have nothing to do with each other.

14.
What do we call the energy that an object has because it is moving?
a)
kinetic energy
b)
electrical energy
c)
potential energy
d)
temperature
