2 States of matter Matter- anything that has mass and takes up space.
Kinetic theory- explains how particles in matter behave All matter is composed of particles Particles are in constant, random motion Particles collide with each other and walls of their container

3 Four states of matter Solid- has definite shape and definite volume. The particles are closely packed in geometric arrangement.

4 Four states of matter Liquid- indefinite shape and definite volume. The particles have more space and slide past each other.

5 Four states of matter Gas- indefinite shape and indefinite volume. The particles have energy to spread out evenly in container.

6 Four states of matter Plasma- high temperature gas, its particles are positively and negatively charged.

7 States of matter The state of a sample of matter depends on temperature. Temperature- related to the average kinetic energy of an objects atoms or molecules.

8 States of matter Thermal expansion- increase in the size of a substance when the temperature increases and contracts when cooled. An exception would be when water is cooled it expands.

9 Changes in States of matter
Melting from solid liquid Melting - change from a solid state to a liquid state. Melting point – temperature at which a solid melts.

10 Changes in States of matter
Freezing from liquid solid Freezing - change from a liquid state to a solid state. Freezing point – temperature at which a liquid freezes.

11 Changes in States of matter
Vaporization from liquid gas Vaporization - change from a liquid state to a gaseous state. boiling point – temperature at which a liquid begins to vaporize. Evaporation- can occur at surface of liquid without heating the liquid. Liquid turns to a gaseous state.

12 Changes in States of matter
Condensation from gas liquid Condensation - change from a gaseous state to a liquid state. Condensation point – temperature at which a gas condenses.

13 melting Vaporization freezing condensation
