STATES OF
MATTER
- SOLIDS
- particles are close together
- regular arrangement
- forces between particles are strong
- can vibrate but not move apart
- fixed shape
- particles can't move closer when pressure is
applied
- volume does not change
- LIQUIDS
- forces between particles are weak
- irregular arrangement
- particles are close together
- can move around and slide past each other
- particles can't move closer when pressure is applied
- volume does not change
- GASES
- particles are far apart
- random arrangement
- forces between particles are non-existent
- can move freely, collide, bounce away
- diffusion
- particles can move closer when pressure is applied
- can be pushed to smaller volume
