phase change diagram

energy is added

endothermic

The latent (hidden) heat of fusion is the liquid amount of energy absorbed when a solid changes to a liquid

Heat of fusion

When water skips a phase and goes straight to the gas phase

sublimation

Energy is lost

exothermic

water vapor condenses

condensation

during a phase change, the ________ doesn't change

temperature doesn't change

when a gas becomes a solid (skips being a liquid)

deposition

Amount of energy to start boiling

Heat of vaporation

amount of energy to start melting

Heat of fusion

an ionized gas consisting of positive ions and free electrons in proportions resulting in more or less no overall electric charge, typically at low pressures

plasma

What are the 4 types of matter?
