Solids, liquids and gasses

• The forces in a solid is strong
• The force in a liquid is weaker than a solid
• A gas almost have no force
• Solids are fixed, regular and touching
• Liquids are touching and can move past each other
• Gasses are spread out, free to move and not touching
• Solids vibrate around a fixed position
• Liquids move in random directions at a slow speed
• Gasses move in random directions at a high speed
• Solids have a definite shape
• What does Indefinite mean in terms of particles model of matter?

• Solids have a greater capacity for Gravitational potential than kinetic energy
• Liquids has a roughly equal kinetic energy than gravitational potential
• Gas has a lower capacity for gravitational and more for kinetic energy
