Shape-not definite
Space between molecules solid
Packed together tightly
Space liquid
Doesn’t hold shape
Not definite
Space gas
Not definite
Large space
What is kinetic molecular theory
Energy of motion.wheb all of the gasses, liquids and solids are moving a explanation for the behaviour of molecules
Physical properties

State- solid liquid gas Colour Malleability Ductility Crystallinity Magnetism
Quantitive
Solubility Conductivity Viscosity Density Melting/freezing point Boiling/condensing point
Malleability
Ability to be beaten into sheets example gold
Dectility
The ability to be drawn into wires example copper
Conductivity
Ability to conduct electricity or heat example metals
Magnetic
Ability to be attracted to a magnet example iron
Solubility
Ability to dissolve in water example sugar or salt
Crystallinity
Shape or apperence of crystals
Viscosity
Resistance to flow example molasses
Chemical property
A substance ability to react with other substances to form new products
Volume
Is amount of space a substance or object occupies
Mass
Is amount of matter in a substance or object G
