Question
Answer
Matter   Anything that occupies space and has mass. All matter is made up of moving particles  
🗑
Examples of matter   wood, air, rock and metal. (W.A.R.M.)  
🗑
Examples of pure substances of matter (all parts are chemically identical)   sugar and salt  
🗑
change of state   when matter changes from one form to another.  
🗑
types of change in state   in volume and density but not total mass  
🗑
the three states of matter   solids, liquids and gases  
🗑
solid particles   are vibrating but have a fixed shape and stay in the same position. They are strongly attracted to each other and are regularly arranged and close together.  
🗑
liquid particles   are moving rapidly but are close together, can change their shape and are attracted to each other. They have no fixed position and a randomly arranged.  
🗑
gas particles   are moving rapidly in all directions, take on the shape of their container. They are randomly arranged, far apart and are not attracted to each other.  
🗑
expansion   is when you heat solids, liquids and gases. the particles don't get bigger but they get further apart  
🗑
diffusion   when moving particles spread out and mix together.  
🗑
changing from one state to another   energy is needed  
🗑
melting point   the temperature at which particles MOVE away from their FIXED position  
🗑
boiling point   the temperature at which particles BREAK away from each other completely and turn into bubbles of gas.  
🗑
pressure   when gas particles pound against the walls of their container. Higher the temperature the greater the pressure.  
🗑
density    
🗑
evaporation    
🗑
expansion    
🗑
