What are the 5 points of the Particle Theory of Matter?
- All matter is made out of particles
- Different substances are made of different types of particles
- Heating particles cause particles to speed up (vibrates) and space out
- Particles are in constant random motion
- There are forces between particles
What is a mixture?
Made of more than 1 type of particle
What is a solution?
Mixtures in which the particles mix well - only 1 visible part
Heterogeneous mixture
Mixtures in which particles do not mix well - can see more than 1 part
Pure substances
All particles in the substance are identical
Compounds
Pure substance where the particles are made of 2 or more types of atoms
Elements
Pure substances in which particles are only made of 1 type of atom
