Q

Particle model of matter

A
  1. All substances are made of particles that are too small to be seen
  2. The particles are always in motion (kinetic energy)
  3. The particles have spaces between them
  4. The motion of particles increases as temp Increases and decreases as temp decreases

Q

Characteristics of a solid

A

Particles are:

Packed closely together
Barely moving (vibrating)
Have a definite volume and shape

When heated the particles will take in more energy pushing in each other until they form a liquid

Q

Characteristics of a liquid

A

Particles are:

Loosely arranged (bigger spaces)
In constant motion
Have a definite volume
Have no definite shape (take the shape of a container)

When heated the particles will take in more energy pushing on each other until they form a gas

Q

Characteristics of gas

A

Particles are:

Floating freely (big spaces)
In constant motion
No definite volume (can be compressed)
No definite shape (fills the container)

These particles have the MOST energy from heat that they can take in
