- Q1What is diffusion?The movement of particles between different states of matterThe movement of particles from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentrationThe movement of particles within a solidThe movement of particles from an area of low concentration to an area of high concentration30s
- Q2What effect does increasing the pressure have on the particles in a gas?They expandThey get closer togetherThey change stateThey become solid30s
- Q3According to the particle theory, what happens to particles when a solid is heated?They move closer togetherThey vibrate moreThey expandThey turn into liquid30s
- Q4What is the process of evaporation?The changing of a liquid into a gas at the surfaceThe changing of a gas into a solidThe changing of a gas into a liquidThe changing of a solid into a liquid30s
- Q5What happens to the pressure of a gas when its volume is decreased?It becomes solidIt increasesIt decreasesIt stays the same30s
- Q6What is the primary factor that affects the rate of diffusion?PressureSizeTemperatureColor30s
- Q7What happens to the particles of a gas when it is cooled?They move fasterThey move slowerThey change stateThey disappear30s
- Q8What is the definition of pressure?The temperature of a substanceThe force exerted on a given areaThe amount of matter in a substanceThe rate at which a substance diffuses30s
- Q9What is the main difference between a solid, a liquid, and a gas?The weight and densityThe temperature and pressureThe color and appearanceThe arrangement and movement of particles30s
