Chapter 1: Matter in Our Surroundings — Quick Reference
Quick Revision Points
- Matter has mass and occupies space; made of particles with spaces, motion, and attraction
- Three states: Solid (fixed shape/volume), Liquid (fixed volume, not shape), Gas (neither fixed)
- Melting point of ice = 0°C (273 K); Boiling point of water = 100°C (373 K)
- Latent heat of fusion of ice = 334 J/g; Latent heat of vaporisation of water = 2260 J/g
- Sublimation: solid → gas directly (camphor, dry ice, naphthalene)
- Evaporation: surface phenomenon at all temperatures; causes cooling; factors: surface area, temperature, humidity, wind
- Temperature conversion: T(K) = T(°C) + 273
