What's The Matter? Matter is anything that has mass and occupies space Mass is the amount of matter The space that mass occupies is referred to as volume.
Four States of Matter 1. Solid 2. Liquid 3. Gas 4. Plasma
Kinetic Theory All material is made of atoms and molecules that act like tiny particles. Particles are always in motion. The higher the temperatures, the faster the particles move. At the same temperatures, more massive particles move slower than less massive particles
Solids Solids Particles are close together Definite Shape Definite Volume Little Kinetic Energy Very hard to compress Solid.wmv
Liquids Definite volume Indefinite shape Can be compressed More kinetic energy than a solid Liquids Water.wmv
Gases Gases Indefinite shape Indefinite volume Can be compressed More kinetic energy than solids and liquids Steam.wmv
