The four classical phase changes in matter depend on pressure and temperature. Solids need the lowest amount of pressure and temperature, followed by liquid, then gas, then plasma needing the most. (There are other non-classical states of matter eg. superfluids) The amount of temperature and pressure (or just enthalpy) required to make the phase change depends on the molecular structure of the molecules.

Why does light show gravitational lensing if it is not a state of matter?

Gravitational lensing does not depend on a the state of matter of light, rather it is an expression of the geometric curvature of space/time due to mass.

Does a change of state affect the amount of matter in a sample of water?

No, a change of state does not affect the amount of matter in a sample of water. When water changes from solid to liquid (melting) or from liquid to gas (evaporation), the total mass remains constant, as mass is conserved during these transformations. The molecules of water simply rearrange themselves, but no matter is lost or gained in the process.


Is hardness extensive or intensive?

No matter what size a sample is, if is hard, it will still be just as hard. This means that hardness is an intensive properties. Intensive properties do not matter what size of sample is being used. Extensive properties will change if sample size is changed.


What is the difference between intensive and extensive properties?

The different between intensive properties and extensive properties is that one is depend on the amount of matter present and one is do not depend on the amount of matter of present.


What does potential energy of a sample of matter depend on?

Potential energy is calculated as mass x gravity x height. Gravity is 9.8 meters per second square.


Why cant mass used as a property to identify a sample of matter?

Mass is an extensive property, which depends only on the amount of matter in the sample, not on the composition of the sample.
