Q

Gas

A

Does not have a definite volume or shape
Particles have the most kinetic energy of the 3 states of matter
Particles are far apart and can move easily. The amount of space between the particles changes

Q

What Happens When Substances Change State?

A

The motion of the molecules and the amount of space between the molecules changes

Example: When a substance is heated, the kinetic energy increases and the space between molecules increases
When as substance is cooled, the kinetic energy decreases and the space between molecules decreases

Q

The Kinetic Theory of Matter

A

All matter is made of atoms and groups of atoms that are in constant motion.
How much the particles move and how often they bump into each other determines the state of matter of the substance
