How does sediment settle?
The process of dropping sediments is called deposition.
What are the tiny little solid particles called in the atmosphere?
Sediments, such as silt, sand, and gravel.
What are tiny solid and liquid particles suspened in the atmosphere called?
Liquid droplets in air are called mists, smaller droplets are aerosols. Solid particulates are dust, smaller sized ar fumes.
How can you explain crystallizing using the particle theory?
When a solid (the solute) dissolves in a liquid (the solvent) the resulting mixture is called a solution. If the solvent is evaporated, then the solid is reformed or crystallized because, as the liquid particles are removed, the solid particles become closer and closer together and eventually bond into a solid.
What is a substance whose particles can move called?
If this substance is a solid, it would be considered amorphous. This substance could also be any liquid or gas
How does sediment settle?
The process of dropping sediments is called deposition.
What is it called when you see tiny particles floating in a liquid?
Mixtures that have floating particles in them are called suspensions.
What is it called when particles move randomly and are well spaced out?
Particles are close but disorganized will change from gaseous state to liquid form. Once in liquid form the particles will spread out.
What happens to the particles in gas when it is made into liquid and wheat is it called?
When a gas turns into a liquid, its called condensation. The particles slow down and move closer together.
What is it called when particles slow down from a gas to a liquid?
When there is a change from a gas to a liquid, the process is called condensation.
What is particulate materials?
The particulate materials refers to the atmospheric aerosols that are originally applied to the solid particles but are at the moment extended to the droplets of the liquid.
Are liquid conductors or insulators?
This is dependent on the amount of particles in the liquid. Dirty or Salt water is a conductor but not as effective as other materials. If the liquid contains minimal particles, for example pure water, it is considered a poor conductor and consequently a good insulator.
What is called in a liquid the particles at the surface change to gas?
vaporisation
Undissolved particles spread throughout a liquid are called?
a suspension
What is it called when particles only leave the surface of a liquid?
This phenomenon is called evaporation.
What do you call the substance in witch particles are being spread out?
it is called a liquid
Is vaporization that occurs when particles on the surface of a liquid escape the liquid even when the liquid is below its boiling point?
No; this process is called evaporation.
