States Of Matter Key words

Question	Answer
What is Brownian Motion	The irregular motion suspended in particles. (Move in random directions.)
What is diffusion?	When particles move from a high concentration to a low concentration.
Solid	Fixed pattern (Lattice Structure) strong bonds keep them held in place. Make tiny vibrations.
Liquid	Close together, no strickt rows. No longer in lattice structure. Forces are weaker than solid but only slightly. Slide past each other.
Gas	Far apart, move quickly almost no force holding the particles together. Collide and bounce in all directions.
What is Sublimation?	Sublimation is a transaction from a solid to a gas without going through the liquid stage. E.g Dry ice Snow & Ice
Gas pressure	Air pressure is caused by the force of air gas particles colliding. Air pressure is equal in all directions. Adding heat effects how slow/ fast the particles move.
