What is Matter?
Matter is anything with mass and takes up
space.
What is a Solid?
A solid is the simplest and most tangible state of matter.
A solid has these three main properties:
1. a definite shape
2. a definite mass
3. A definite volume.
A solid will always looks the same and take up the same
amount of space.
Examples of solid
What is a Liquid?
A liquid is the most fluid and ever-changing state of
matter:
A liquid has these three main properties:
1. does not have a definite shape
2. has a definite mass
3. has a definite volume
A liquid will always take up the same amount of space and
take the shape of its container.
Example of Liquid
What is a Gas?
A gas is the most complex and
difficult to understand state of
matter:
A gas has these three main
properties:
1. does not have a definite shape.
2. does not have a definite mass.
3. does not have a definite volume.
Example of Gases
Phase Change
Melting
Phase change from a
solid to a liquid
Molecules speed up,
move farther apart,
and absorb heat
energy
Freezing
Phase Change from a
liquid to a solid
Molecule slow down,
move closer together
and release heat
energy.
Vaporization (Boiling)
Phase change from a
liquid to gas.It
occurs at the boling
point of matter
Molecules speed up,
move farther apart,
and absorb heat
energy.
Evaporation
Phase change from a liquid
to a gas on the surface
of a liquid (occurs at all
temperatures).
Molecules speed up, move
farther apart, and
absorb heat energy.
Condensation
Phase change from a gas to
liquid.
Molecule slow down, move
close together and
release heat energy.
Sublimation
Phase change from a
solid to gas
Molecules speed up,
move farther apart,
and absorb heat
energy.
