State of Matter Flashcards
Name three states of matter
- Solid
- Liquid
- Gas
What properties of solid do you know?
- Solids cannot be compressed
- They have fixed shape/volume
- Thay have high density
Name properties of liquid.
- Liquid cannot be compressed (sqashed)
- Cannot flow
- Can take the shape of container
- Quite high density
Name gas properties.
- Can be compressed
- Can flow
- Low density
- Change volume to fill the room
- Can take the shape of their container.
What is material?
Material is just the stuff that something ia made of
List five everyday group of materials findnin your home.
- Metals
- Plastics
- Glass
- Fibre
- Ceramic
Name properties of metal.
- Metals are strong, shiny and good conductors of heat and electricity
- A few are magnetic
Describe the arrangement of the particles of a solid ( movement of particles)
Solid has a regular arrangement of particles. The Particles also vibrate.
Describe the arrangement of the particles of a Liquid ( movement of particles)
Liquid has a regular arrangement of particles. The particles also move around each other in different directions.
Describe the arrangement of the particles of a Gas ( movement of particles)
gas has a random arrangement of particles. The particles also move around at different speed.
how can you tell that a chemical reaction took place between carbon and carbon dioxide
in carbon dioxide the particles ae joined together
how do you see if mass has been conserved in a reaction
Balanced chemical equations show that mass is conserved in chemical reactions
