  1. Aarav Kumar The Three States of Matter

  2. Solids Solids have a definite shape and a definite volume. Particles in solids vibrate in place. These particles have almost no space between them. The atoms, molecules or ions which make up a solid are arranged in a orderly repeating pattern.

  3. More on solids Solids are all around us in the universe. Wherever you will look there will always be solids. Some examples are machines, a pen, a calculator, and millions more that I could name.

  4. Liquids Liquids have a definite volume but no fixed shape. A liquid is made up of tiny particles, far enough to slide past each other, held together by forces called chemical bonds. A chemical bond is an attraction between atoms that allows the formation of chemical substances that contain two or more atoms. A liquid can take shape of any container you put them in. Liquid particles are close together with no regular arrangement.

  5. Interesting facts on Liquids Water expands as it freezes. An ice cube takes about nine percent more volume than the water used to make it. Did you know that the chemical name for a liquid is dihydrogen monoxide? Also if you put a handful of salt into a full glass of water the water level will go down rather than overflowing.

  6. Gases Gas particles move fast going in all directions supposedly bouncing off each other. Like liquids gas can also take shape of any container you put them in. Gases do not have a definite shape size or volume.

  7. Interesting facts on Gases Pure gases are made of one atom. Neon is an example of a pure gas. Did you know that the Earth’s atmosphere contains the gases called co2, oxygen, methane, nitrogen, and argon. Natural gas comes from the ground and is highly flammable. Approximately 2 thirds of a humans body mass is oxygen.
