E2K+Virtual+Competition+International_6+April

Hello everyone,

The time you've been waiting for has finally arrived... Let's start the preparation by using this wikispace to research and discuss the topics given for the international competition.

The "**Sublime Nature**" **International Virtual Science Activity** deals with the processes underlying the natural phenomena of changing states of matter and with the particle models of these processes.

The particle model can be learned by studying the simulation at: http://excellence.vistapanel.net/phases.html It is important that you understand these processes by reviewing the **__different types of precipitation and their formation__**. Below is the list of the main topics covered in the quiz: > (direct transition from gas to solid)** During the session, you will answer questions, **__connect computerized simulations of particle behaviour to various phenomena__**, and conduct experiments.
 * **Evaporation and condensation**
 * **Sublimation (direct transition from solid to gas) and deposition
 * **Particle models of states of matter**
