Describe the particles in a gas
1. Strong forces of attraction which hold the particles close together. 2. Held together in a fixed, regular arrangement. 3.don't have much energy so just vibrate
7 of 15
Describe the particles in a solid
1. Almost no forces of attraction between particles 2. Have more energy than a solid and liquid 3. Free to move at random directions at high speess
8 of 15
Describe the particles in a liquid
1. Weaker forces of attraction between particles. 2. Close together in irregular arrangement 3. Move at random directions at low speeds

Why are metals good conductors?
Because they have free, deloclaised electrons which are free to move inside the metal
