Is the gas phase the most ordered phase?
No. The particles of substances in the solid state/phase are the most ordered. The particles of substances in the gas state/phase have the least order.
Is smoke a example of matter?
Yes, particulate matter in the solid phase and matter in the gaseous phase.
What temperature at which a substance in the liquid phase transforms to the gaseous phase refers to the substances?
boiling point
What is it called to change states of matter?
Phase change. Liquid phase to gaseous phase (evaporation) Liquid phase to solid phase (solidification, freezing) Solid phase to gaseous phase (sublimation9 Etc...
When boiling water begins to turn to steam does the phase density or temperature remain the same?
no The temperature remains the same. The density between phases changes of course but the density within each phase remains the same.
What physical state or phase of matter- has the greatest density?
usually, the solid phase. Water is a notable exception.
If 2 pure substances have the same density are they same substance?
No, at a different temperature and pressure the volume of any substance increases or decrease (depending on Temperature and Pressure). Also the severity of the volumetric change depends on the state of the substance. Because density=mass/volume and the volume changes while the mass doesn't the density WILL change slightly in solid phase, noticeably in the liquid phase and significantly in the gas phase regardless of weather or not the substance is pure
Is the gas phase the most ordered phase?
No. The particles of substances in the solid state/phase are the most ordered. The particles of substances in the gas state/phase have the least order.
Does the amount of a particular matter affect its density?
The simple answer to this would be no. Density is the mass per volume of a substance so if you were to add either one of these quantities the other would have to rise by a proportional amount and the density would remain constant. However this become untrue when the amount of matter you are dealing with become on the order of a planetary mass. This much matter will produce a gravitational field which will cause pressures to result that will be enough to invoke a phase change in the portions from the center of the mass on outwards. In this case the density will change with the change in phase.
When substances go directly from the solid phase to the gas phase the phase change is called?
sublimation
What phase of matter consits of vibrating in place?
the solid phase of matter
What is Jupiter's phase of matter?
Jupiter's phase of matter is a 'gas giant'.
Is smoke a example of matter?
Yes, particulate matter in the solid phase and matter in the gaseous phase.
What is the 4th phase of matter?
some people soy that there is no 4 phase of matter but some say plasma is the 4 phase of matter
Why would a solid be heavier than a iiquid?
For all substances, except water, the solid phase is more dense than the liquid phase. So if you had equal volumes of the solid phase and liquid phase, the solid phase would have more mass. For example, the density of solid iron is 7.874g/cm3, and the density of liquid iron is 6.98g/cm3. NOTE: The 3 after cm is supposed to be a superscript, so that cm3 is supposed to be cubic centimeters, however, currently the subscripts and superscripts are not working.
What phase of matter are metamorphic rocks?
All rocks are in the solid phase of matter.
When one observes the phase of matter of water what property of matter does one observe?
At room temperature water is a liquid. You can observe (or measure) density, viscosity, thermal conductivity, electrical resistivity, refractive index etc.
