Freezing
Name four properties of a solid
Fixed shape, fixed volume, cannot flow and particles are close together and have a regular pattern
Name four properties of a liquid
Take the shape of the container, have a fixed volume, can flow and The particles are close together in a random arrangement and can move around each other
Name four properties of a gas
Take the shape of the container, have no fixed volume, can flow and have a random arrangement and are far apart
What are the three states of matter
Solid (s), liquid (l), gas (g)
What is everything made up of
Matter
Which state of matter can be compressed
Gas
How does a solid expand
Energy is gained and the particles vibrate more creating spaces between them
Do solids have varying densities
Yes
Can liquids expand
Yes
