What is matter?
Solid, Liquid, Gas
-Anything that takes up space and has mass.
What are the two condensed states?
Liquid/ Gas
Property of matter - Gas
Particle Motion: continuous & random
Order: disordered
Particle Spacing: relatively LARGE
Volume/Shape: takes on volume and shape of container
Compressibility: VERY compressible
Density: LOW
FLUID
Property of matter- Liquid
Particle Motion: continuous and random
Order: disordered GROUPS
Particle Spacing: SMALL
Volume/Shape: definite volume, takes on shape of portion of container occupied
Compressibility: NOT very compressible
Density: HIGH
FLUID
Property of matter - SOLID
Particle Motion: continuous and random
Order: ordered, repeating structure
Particle Spacing: VERY SMALL
Volume/Shape: definite volume and shape
Compressibility: NOT very compressible
Density: HIGH (typically greater than liquid)
