1. States of Matter There are 4 states of matter. We are not talking about Idaho and Utah.

2. Solids, Liquids, Gases

3. Solid ßParticles are close together and do not move very much. ßVolume stays the same. ßShape stays the same.

4. Liquid ßParticles are farther apart and speed up a little. ßVolume stays the same. ßShape changes.

5. Gas ßParticles are far apart and fast ßShape changes ßVolume changes

6. Plasma ßParticles are very fast and far apart ßElectrons leave their energy levels and fly ßVolume changes ßShape changes

7. Actually there are 2 more ßNewly discovered and not much is know about them.

8. Fermionic Condensate ßDiscovered in 2003 ßParticles are close almost holding still and yet can still flow. Weird I know ßShape and volume do not stay the same

9. Bose-Einstein Solid 1995 ßPredicted by Mr. Bose and Mr. Einstein ßAll the atoms stick together and act as a block ßParticles very close, holding still ßVery cold ßShape stays the same ßVolume stays the same

10. Sketch 4 boxes. ßLabel the boxes each of the 4 states of matter ßUsing X’s in the boxes show how the particles would look. Show how close they would be to each other

11. Read Blue pages 32-35 ßAnswer the 1-7 questions on page Blue 35.
