Solids Liquids and Gases
Describing Matter
solids
liquids
gases
plasma
high energy
seen in lightning flashes
the sun
ways to describe matter
state of matter
color
smell
texture
volume
density is constant
units/weight
particles in motion
particles make up all matter
type of matter depends on how fast the particles in it move
collisions change speed of matter.
forces between particles
faster moving particles means particles are farther apart.
attractive forces get weaker
strength of bonds between particles determines state of matter
temperature
Solids
have definite shape and volume
particles are very close together
types of solids
differ by arrangement of particles
Liquids
particle motion is faster
particles are farther apart
viscosity=resistance to movement
more attractive force between particles = more viscous
set volume but not shape
Gases
indefinite volume
and
shape
very little force between particles
vapor
