Particular nature of matter
Definition
Matter are made up of small, discrete particles which are in constant and random motions. Particulate Nature of Matteris a model to represent these particles.
Properties of Matter
Solid
has a definate volume, a definate shape and cannot be compressed
Liquid
has a definate volume, no definate shape and cannot be compressed
Gas
has a definate volume, no definate shape andcan be compressed
Gas
Arangements of particles
Solid
Particles are arranged in an orderly manner
Gas
Particles are arranged in a disorderly manner
Liquid

Space of particles
Solid
Particles are very closely packed
Gas
Particles are very far apart
Liquid
Particles are closely packe but slightly further apart than solid
Movement of particles
Solid
Particles vibrateat their fixed position
Gas
Particles move quickly in all directions
Liquid
Particles move randomly and slide past one another
Force between particles
Solid
particles are held together by strong forces of attraction
Gas
Particles are held together by weak forces of attraction
Liquid
particles are hel together by strong forces of attraction
