Phases of Matter

Phases of Matter. The 3 different phases of matter are solid, liquid and gas. 1. SOLIDS. Solids have two important characteristics: definite mass and volume. The particles in a solid are closely packed together. The movement of particles in a solid is what we would call a vibration.

  1. Phases of Matter

  2. The 3 different phases of matter are solid, liquid and gas.

  3. 1. SOLIDS • Solids have two important characteristics: definite mass and volume.

  4. The particles in a solid are closely packed together. The movement of particles in a solid is what we would call a vibration.

  5. Examples: Ice, sugar, metal, coin . . . Ice hotel!

  6. 2. LIQUIDS • Liquids do not have any specific shape, but take the shape of the container in which they are placed. They do have a definite volume.

  7. The particles in a liquid are close together but are free to move around each other. • Example: water, honey, motor oil

  8. 3. GAS • Gases do not have a definite shape or volume. A gas fills the space available.

  9. The particles in a gas are spread very far apart from one another. There is a lot of empty space between each particle

  10. When matter is converted from a solid (ice) to a liquid (water), and to a gas (steam), heat energy is required. The density of a substance is decreased with the addition of more energy.

  11. Hot Air Balloons

  12. Rail Roads and Thermal Expansion
