- States of Matter
- The 3 States of Matter
- Solids
- Arrangement
- Close together and in a regular pattern
- Movement and Energy
- Vibrate on the spot
- Properties
- Have a fixed shape and cannot flow
- They cannot move from one place to another
- Cannot be compressed nor squashed
- They are close together and have no space to move into
- Have a fixed shape and cannot flow
- Arrangement
- Liquids
- Arrangement
- Close together and in a random pattern
- Movement and Energy
- They slip and slide over each other
- Properties
- They flow and take the shape of any container
- The particles can move around each other
- Cannot be compressed nor squashed
- They are close together and have no space to move into
- They flow and take the shape of any container
- Arrangement
- Gasses
- Arrangement
- Far apart and in a random arrangement
- Movement and Energy
- Move quickly in all directions
- Properties
- They fill and shape to their container
- The particles can move around quickly
- They can be compressed and squashed
- The particles are far apart and have more space to move into
- They fill and shape to their container
- Arrangement
- Solids
- State Changes
- Heat must be supplied to substance for it to melt, evaporate or boil
- Heat must be removed from a substance for it to condense or freeze
- Under certain conditions, some solids can turn into a gas when heated
- This is called sublimation
- Changing the Pressure
- A gas can turn into a liquid if the pressure is increased
- This is because the particles are more close together for bonds to form between them
- A gas can turn into a liquid if the pressure is increased
