States of Matter
Gases
Flows
Fills the entire volume of its container
Particles are far apart
Easily compressed (because there is so much space between particles).
Solids
The particles that make up a solid are packed very closely together
Solids have a definite volume and shape because particles in a solid vibrate around fixed locations
Expands slightly when heated
Does not conform to the shape of the container
Incompressible
Liquids
Flows
Constant volume
Takes the shape of the container
Particles are less closely packed and can move past each other
Incompressible
Terms for Phase Changes
Melting
Deposition
Freezing
Boiling
Condensing
Sublimation
