Phase Changes Worksheet and Activities

This document appears to be a worksheet for students on the topic of phase changes of matter. It begins with introductory sections defining the kinetic theory of matter and describing the three phases of matter - solid, liquid, and gas. It then lists and defines common phase changes (melting, freezing, vaporization, condensation, sublimation, deposition) and has students fill in the corresponding phase changes in blanks. The worksheet also includes a phase change diagram to interpret, questions on determining if various phase changes are endothermic or exothermic, chemical equations, and practice problems calculating heat transfer during phase changes.

Important Things to Know - Do Not Skip Over these 2 Sections


READ and REMEMBER

Kinetic Theory of Matter:


 Molecules are always moving. This is known as the kinetic theory of matter.
 We measure this kinetic energy with a thermometer as temperature.
 The greater the material's internal energy, the higher the temperature of that material.
 Heat is the energy flow between objects of different temperature.
 Heat and temperature are NOT the same.

Phases of Matter:
Solid
 matter that has definite volume and shape.
 The particles of a solid have high attraction for each other so are packed together tightly and
vibrate in position.
Liquid
 matter that has definite volume but not shape.
 The particles of a liquid have high attraction for each other so are tightly packed but have more
energy than solids so they tumble past each other enabling liquids to flow
Gas
 matter that has indefinite volume or shape.
 Gases exist as single particles with no attraction for each other and move rapidly in straight line
colliding with each other or the inside of the container that they will spread out and fill.

Phase Change Descriptions:

E & beyond

Molar Heat Calculations


Remember: Heat energy can be “spent” on only one job at a time. Either it will cause a change in
temperature or change of state, never both at the same time. Use the molar heat values for water
from the previous page for some of these calculations.

1. Is melting endothermic or exothermic? Explain.

2. Is vaporization endothermic or exothermic? Explain.

3. Describe the process of sublimation and give an example. Is sublimation endothermic or exothermic?
Explain.

4. Write a chemical equation for the sublimation of water.

5. Calculate the amount of heat needed to melt 35.0 g of ice at 0 ºC. Express your answer in Joules.

6. How much energy is released to the environment by 50.0 grams of condensing water vapor?

7. How much energy is required to melt a 20.0 lb bag of ice at 0ºC? A pound (lb.) of ice is equivalent to
0.4536 kg.

8. Calculate the amount of heat needed to convert 190.0 g of liquid water at 100ºC to steam at 100ºC.

9. When a substance changes from a solid to a liquid, do you think this is a physical change chemical change?

10. Challenge:Calculate the amount of heat needed to convert 230.0 g of ice at -10ºC to water at 0ºC.
(two calculations).
