Solid - ANSWERS-has a definite shape and volume.
Liquid - ANSWERS-has a definite volume, but takes the shape of its
container.
Gas - ANSWERS-lacks either a defined shape or volume.
Plasma - ANSWERS-is similar to a gas in that its particles are very far
apart, but a gas is electrically neutral and plasma has a charge.
Pressure - ANSWERS-A force per unit area of surface on which the
force acts. In measurements and calculations involving gasses, it is often
expressed in units related to measurements of atmospheric pressure.
Temperature - ANSWERS-a reaction causing a change from one
optically active configuration to the opposite configuration, especially
the hydrolysis of dextrose to give a levorotatory solution of fructose and
glucose.

MIDTERM
Volume - ANSWERS-The amount of space that a substance or object
occupies, or that is enclosed within a container, especially when great.
Boyle's law - ANSWERS-A gas law that describes the pressure and
volume behavior of a gas sample kept at constant temperature.
Charles's law - ANSWERS-A gas law that describes the temperature and
volume behavior of a gas sample kept at constant pressure.
Combined gas law - ANSWERS-A gas law that describes the pressure,
volume, and temperature behavior of a gas sample.
Dalton's law of partial pressure - ANSWERS-The total pressure exerted
by a mixture of gasses is equal to the sum of the partial pressures of the
gasses in the mixture.

Ideal gas law - ANSWERS-A gas law that relates the pressure, volume,
temperature, and number of moles in a gas sample.
Evaporation or vaporization - ANSWERS-An endothermic process in
which a liquid is changed to a gas.
Condensation - ANSWERS-An exothermic process in which a gas or
vapor is changed to a liquid or solid.
Vapor pressure - ANSWERS-The pressure exerted by vapor that is in
equilibrium with its liquid.
Boiling point - ANSWERS-The temperature at which the vapor pressure
of a liquid is equal to the prevailing atmospheric pressure.
Sublimation - ANSWERS-The endothermic process in which a solid is
changed directly to a gas without first becoming a liquid.
