1. States of Matter Matter exists in four states: Solid Liquid Gas Plasma

2. States of Matter Classification is based on:  Particle arrangement  Energy of particles  Distance between particles

3. States of Matter Solids  Particles of solids are tightly packed, vibrating about a fixed position.  Solids have a definite shape and a definite volume.  Strong intermolecular attraction  Most dense (exception – water)  Not compressible

4. States of Matter Solids Particle Movement Example:

5. States of Matter Liquids  Particles of liquids are tightly packed, but are far enough apart to slide over one another.  Liquids have an indefinite shape and a definite volume.  Less intermolecular attraction  Compressible  More intermolecular space than solids

6. States of Matter Liquids Particle Movement Examples

7. States of Matter Gases PP articles of gases are very far apart and move freely. GG ases have an indefinite shape and an indefinite volume. WW eak intermolecular attraction EE asily compressible LL east dense of solids, liquids and gases.

8. Gases Particle Movement Examples States of Matter Random Particle Movement

9. States of Matter Plasma  A plasma is an ionized gas.  Plasma, like gases have an indefinite shape and an indefinite volume.

10. States of Matter Plasma Particles - The negatively charged electrons (yellow) are freely streaming through the positively charged ions (blue).

12. States of Matter Microscopic Explanation for Properties of Solids  Solids have a definite shape and a definite volume because the particles are locked into place  Solids are not easily compressible because there is little free space between particles  Solids do not flow easily because the particles cannot move/slide past one another

13. States of Matter Microscopic Explanation for Properties of Liquids  Liquids have an indefinite shape because the particles can slide past one another.  Liquids are not easily compressible and have a definite volume because there is little free space between particles.  Liquids flow easily because the particles can move/slide past one another.

14. Microscopic Explanation for Properties of Gases GG ases have an indefinite shape and an indefinite volume because the particles can move past one another. GG ases are easily compressible because there is a great deal of free space between particles. GG ases flow very easily because the particles randomly move past one another.

15. Physical and Chemical Properties Physical don’t involve changes in composition can be qualitative or quantitative –temperature –color –odor –size; density –melting, boiling, freezing points Chemical observed when composition of a substance changes describe ability to react or decompose –rust on iron –ability to burn –instability of a substance

16. Energy Involved in Phase Changes Solid Liquid Gas BoilingCondensation MeltingFreezing Requires Energy Liberates Energy

17. Law of Conservation of Matter (Mass) Matter is neither created nor destroyed in a chemical reaction! (Atoms do not disappear… they are only rearranged!)
