Particle of matter

• The three states of matter


  solid, liquid, gas

  
• Movement of particles of a solid


  Vibrate in place

  
• Movement of particles of a liquid


  Slide over one another

  
• Movement of particles of a gas


  Move quickly in all directions, bounce off each other

  
• Change of state


  When a substances changes to become a solid, liquid or gas
• Boiling point of water


  100 degrees Celsius

  
• Freezing and melting point of ice


  Zero degrees Celsius
• Diffusion


  When particles of a substance move from an area of higher concentration to an area of low concentration until the concentration is the same everywhere
• Melting


  The change in state from a solid to a liquid
• Evaporating


  The change of state from a liquid to a gas
• Freezing


  The change of state from a liquid to a solid
• Condensation


  The change of state from a gas to a liquid
• This happens when water is cooled to 0 degrees Celsius


  Freezing
• This happens when a water vapour is cooled to below 100 degrees Celsius


  Condensation
• This happens when water is heated to above 100 degrees Celsius


  Evaporation
• State that can change volume

  Gas
• States that can change shape

  Liquid and gas
• States that CANNOT change volume


  Solid and liquid
• State in which particles are far apart


  Gas
• State in which the particles take the shape of the container


  Liquid
