1a) States of matter
kinetic particle theory
all matter consists of tiny particles which could be atoms, molecules or ions
all particles move and so have kinetic energy. thin movement could be vibrations or change of position

[3 states of matter]
liquid
arrangement
random, irregular but still close to each other and touching occasionally
-

-
-
-
gas
movement
very fast and randomly but moving in straight lines. when particles collide/bounce off container walls, it is called pressure
-
arrangement
random, very far apart. when heated move even further apart

describe changes in arrangement, movement & energy of particles during interconversions
-
when melting, why does solid need energy? - when particles gain energy they vibrate more but remain in a fixed & uniform structure. When they reach melting point they break free from the fixed structure and begin to move around each other
