Science 1.2 More About Matter pg.10-11

The 3 states of matter are solid (i.e. ice), liquid (i.e. water), and gas (i.e. vapour).

A rock is a solid because it has a definite shape and volume.

Grape juice is a liquid because it takes the shape of its container and has a definite volume.

Air is a gas because it does not have a definite volume or shape and takes the shape of its container.

When heated, a solid (i.e. ice) changes to a liquid because the water particles move faster and spread apart in all directions causing it to melt; if you add more heat, the water will evaporate into a gas (steam).

Both solids and liquids have the same volume – the quantity of space they occupy will never change because the arrangement of their particles is constant.

Solids: definite shape, definite volume.

Liquids: definite volume, shape changes according to container.

Gases: no definite shape or volume.

These are solid particles.  They stay in the same position, very close together and move little.

These are liquid particles.  They are close together but move around in all directions.

These are gas particles.  Full of energy, they move quickly and spread apart in all directions.

Solid: definite shape (yes), definite volume (yes).

Liquid: definite shape (no), definite volume (yes).

Gas: definite shape (no), definite volume (no).

apple juice: liquid b/c definite shape, definite volume, particles medium energy.

water vapour: gas b/c steam no definite shape, no definite volume, particles high energy.

wood: solid b/c definite shape, definite volume, particles low energy.
