1
Q

A
- how we will refer to the tiny pieces that make an object
- they have a specific arrangement and motion depending on their state of matter

Q
Kinetic Theory Model
A
- State that particles of matter are always in motion
- The amount of motion depends on the amount of energy
- when we add/decrease energy and we change from solid to liquid to gas, and then back again, we can incorporate our processes of states of matter changes
