Temperature
Matter changes state because of temperature and pressure. These quantities bring change.
atmospheric pressure is 14 psi at sea level. if your body has a surface area of 15 square feet, 2160 square inches, there is technically a total of 30,000 pounds of air pushing on your body at once. dont quote me on that though i am confident that there is some major flaw in that logic
Extrinsic Physical Property. <-- Physical Science Bookwork in Nova Net.
air is composed OF matter
That is true in the sense that when a given quantity of material changes phase (by melting, freezing, boiling, etc.) the amount of mass does not change. Of course, mass may escape. When water boils, the vapor will escape into the air unless you have special equipment to collect it.
Yes. The phase of matter which is exposed to normal atmospheric pressure solely dependent upon temperature.
The property of matter that is dependent on altitude is atmospheric pressure. Atmospheric pressure decreases with increasing altitude due to the decrease in the weight of the air above. This decrease in pressure affects various aspects of the environment, such as boiling points of liquids and gas behavior.
Calcium is a solid at atmospheric presure up to the melting point of 842 0C.
the STD of a diamond is Solid
berometers measure atmospheric pressure.
Phase shift from liquid to gas (vapor), where the vapor pressure is just equal to the atmospheric pressure.
It depends what type of matter it is, as well as, atmospheric pressure.
We do not feel the atmospheric pressure - roughly 101kPa - because our bodies have adapted to it, to the point where the pressure in our bodies exactly balances the external pressure, resulting in no net force on your body.
Temperature and pressure, for states solid,liquid, gas.
It isn't constant anywhere, no. 1013.25 mb is simply the average pressure, which is particularly important at sea level because that is how observations are standardized. But atmospheric pressure always varies no matter where you are, as a consequence of having weather.
1) Atmospheric Pressure If this is for the answers to the worksheet that goes with Matter and Motion in God's Universe, 2) 14.7 PSI
Atmospheric pressure exerts pressure on the molecules of the liquid, confining them. In order to boil, the electrons must be excited, but must become hotter to overcome the pressure of the atmosphere. Therefore, pressure makes a liquid boil at a higher temperature. With a solid, the molecules are already compact together and have to be melted before they can be boiled. This does not require excitation of electrons, but it does require movement of electrons. Once the solid is melted, pressure will make it harder for the electrons to become excited.
