Solids
(What is it?)
Keeps it shape unless a force is applied to it. Remains the same volume.
Particles are closely packed in a regular pattern. They vibrate on the spot.
Examples are: rock, chair and a brick
Liquids
(What is it?)
Takes the shape of the container it is in. Stays the same volume.
Particles are close together but random. They can move over each other.
Examples are: milk, juice and a river
Gases
(What is it?)
Does not keep it shape. Can spread out to for the shape that is in.
Particles I spread out and can move quickly in all directions.
Examples are: cloud,O2 and CO2
What is it called when a solid turns into a liquid?
Melting
What is it called when a liquid turns into a gas?
Evaporation or boiling
What is it called when a gas turns into a liquid?
Condensation
What is it called when a liquid turns into a solid?
Freezing or solidifying
What is it called when a solid turns into a gas?
Sublimation
What is it called when a gas turns into a solid?
Deposition
What is the order of the water cycle
Remember the silly song you made up
Sun
Accumulation/ocean
Evaporation
Condensation

Metals
(What are they?)
Shiny
Hard
Heavy
Densely packed together
Conducts electricity and heat well
Can be moulded into different shapes
Can be made into thin wire
Most metals can be heated in high temperatures before mounting
Mind from earth
Give me some examples of metals
Copper, steel, bras, gold, silver, zinc and nickel
Non-metals
(What are they?)
Doll
Britain
Light or heavy
Dentally or loosely packed
Insulators do not conduct heat to all electricity
Flexible or Rigid
Ductile or hard
Cannot be heated to a very high temperatures before melting
Man made all mind from earth
Give me some examples of non-metals
Plastic, wood, paper and fabric
