The section explains that pressure alters the distances between particles, leading to changes in the states of matter. It emphasizes the principles of compression, sublimation, and the implications for gaseous states under pressure.
Effect of Change of Pressure
As we have learned about the states of matter, it becomes crucial to understand how pressure influences these states. The section outlines that pressure affects the distances between particles — when pressure is applied to a gas, it compresses the particles closer together. This fundamental principle can lead to significant changes in the state of matter, particularly for gases that can easily be compressed. Moreover, different substances respond uniquely to pressures, with phenomena such as sublimation — where solids can transition directly to gas without becoming liquid — and how gases can liquefy under high pressures. The discussion points also encompass real-world examples, such as the behavior of carbon dioxide at varying pressures and its solid state as dry ice.
Pressure affects states of matter: Increasing pressure can compress gases.
Sublimation: Solids can transition to gas directly under low pressure.
Real-world applications: Pressure changes impact daily experiences, like in sodas.
Pressure makes gas particles squeeze, to change their state with ease.
Imagine a balloon that’s tightly squeezed, the air inside is feeling teased. When released, it pops, and off it goes, showing how pressure changes flows.

Dry ice sublimating into carbon dioxide gas under low pressure.
Soda can releasing gas when the pressure is released.
