Q

Describe the “Particle theory”

A

The particle theory of matter describes the molecules and their interactions, which result in observable pressure, volume, and temperature. The theory can be used to explain why matter exists in different phases (solid, liquid, and gas), as well as how matter can change from one phase to the next
