Name the three forms that a material has

A

Solid
Liquid
Gas

2
Q

What are the three forms known as

A

Matter

3
Q

What do all matters have

A

Particles (atoms and molecules)

4
Q

Tell me about the particles in a solid

A

Definite shape
Definite volume
Cannot be compressed
Cannot flow

5
Q

Tell me about the particles in a liquid

A

No definite shape
Definite volume
Cannot be compressed
Can flow

6

A

No definite shape
No definite volume
Can be compressed
Can flow

7
Q

Can matters change state

A

Yes

8
Q

How does a solid turn into a liquid

A

It’s melted or heated

Ex: ice-water

9
Q

How does a liquid turn into a gas

A

It’s heated again, until boiling point

Ex;water-steam

10
Q

What is waters boiling point

A

100 degrees Celsius

11
Q

What is the opposite of boiling

A

Condensing

12
Q

What is diffusion

A

Diffusion is the movement of particles from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration.

13
Q

What is matter

A

It is anything that occupies space and has mass

14
Q

What is the name of the crystals

A

Potassium manganate

15
Q

What does evaporation mean

A

It’s when a liquid changes into a gas

16
Q

What is the Mathis of the delusion experiment

A

Using a forceps gently place a few potassium manganate crystals at the bottom of a beaker of water.

Observe what happens for a few minutes.

Leave your beaker. Explain what has happened to the purple particles.

17
Q

What is the result of the diffusion experiment

A

The purple colour of the potassium manganate slowly spreads throughout the water until the solution is evenly coloured.

18
Q

What is matter

A

Matter is anything that occupies space and has mass

19
Q

What is diffusion

A

Diffusion is the movement of particles from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration.

A

Three
