6
Q
Solid
A
In solids, particles are very close together and vibrate in a fixed position.
Solids have a fixed shape and volume.
When heated, the particles vibrate with a greater amplitude.
7
Q
Liquid
A
In liquids, particles are very close together but they move and flow randomly past one another.
Liquids have a fixed volume but can change shape and fill a container.
When heated, the average speed of particles increases.
8
Q
Gas
A
In gases, particles are far apart and move randomly in all directions.
Gases change shape and volume to fill any container.
When heated, the average speed of particles increases.
