Classifying Matter

TermDefinition
State of Matter Property that describes whether the material is a solid, liquid, or gas.
Volume Tells how much space an object takes up.
Spacing of Particles Tells if the particles of a type of matter are packed, loose, or spread apart.
Shape Describes if an object has a definite, or unchanging, form.
Movement of Particles Describes if the particles of an object are just vibrating, flowing, or moving apart.
Physical Property Properties that can be observed and measured, and DO NOT cause a change in the chemical properties of an object. (Examples: size, color, and shape)
Solid State of Matter that has it a definite shape and volume; Its molecules move the slowest and are packed the closest. Its molecules have the least energy and are the least compressible.
Liquid State of Matter that does NOT have a definite shape and takes the shape of its container, but it DOES HAVE a definite volume. Its molecules have more energy and move faster than solids.
Gas State of Matter that has NO definite shape or volume; it expands to fill its container. Its molecules have more energy and move faster than liquids; Molecules are easily compressible
