  • Boiling point

    The temperature where a liquid becomes a gas
  • Melting point

    The temperature where a liquid becomes a solid
  • When a solid is heated

    1. It gains more energy
    2. The particles start to move more
    3. That's called melting
  • Diffusion
    The movement of particles from an area of high concentration to lower concentration
  • Particles are spreading out
  • Factors that affect the rate of diffusion

    • Temperature
    • Distance
    • Liquid or gas
  • Elements are the simplest type of substance, they cannot be broken down into any other type of substance
  • We can combine different elements to make new substances
