2. States of Matter 1. What property of matter is affected by temperature? 2. What state of matter is water in when it is at a low temperature?

3. Solids 1. Describe the kinetic theory of matter. 2. Why can’t solids be squeezed into smaller spaces? 3. Explain why solids cannot change shape. 4. What type of substances can appear solid even though they really are not?

4. Liquids 1. What characteristics of liquid particles explains why liquids cannot be squeezed into smaller volumes? 2. What characteristic explains why liquids take on the shape of their container? 3. Describe how liquid particles are both similar to and different from solids.

5. Gases 1. What two characteristics of gases allow them to be described as “springy”? 2. Compare the spacing of gas particles to those in liquids and solids.

6. More on Gases 1. What characteristic of gas particles allow them to spread and fill their container? 2. What characteristic allows them to be compressed into smaller spaces? 3. Compare the properties of solids, liquids and gases.

7. Plasma 1. Where is plasma most abundant? 2. Describe how plasma is different from gas.

8. Thermal Expansion 1. What is an expansion joint? 2. Why do concrete structures have gaps built into them? 3. What is thermal expansion?

9. Thermal Expansion 1. Describe how particles in a solid change when heated. 2. Explain what causes solids to expand when heated. 3. Explain why the liquid in thermometers moves up the tube when heated.
