Solid to Liquid
Solid
-fixed volume, shape
-high density
-atoms vibrate in fixed position
-organised in a regular pattern
Liquid
-fixed volume, but adapts to the given volume
-less dense than solids
-particles move and slide past eachother
gas
-doesn’t have a fixed volume
-low density
- can be compressed into much smaller volume.
-particles moves randomly to any direction
-moves in a fast speed (around 500m/s)
