solid

The particles are tightly packed.

The particles do not move around.

liquid

The particles are close together.

The particles vibrate, move, and slide past each other.

gas

A state of matter that has no definite shape or volume. Has a high kinetic energy.

The particles are very separated, vibrate, and move quickly.

condensation

Gas to liquid:

(Dew on grass)

evaporation

Liquid to Gas:

(Puddles disappearing)

melting point

Solid to liquid:

(Ice to water) (100 kpa)

freezing point

Liquid to solid:

(Water to ice) (0c) (32f)

Liquid

can be poured and take on the shape of their container. Has mass and volume.

Evaporation

the change of a liquid to a gas

condensation

A change of state from a gas to a liquid due to a cooling or compression.

Matter

anything that takes up space and has mass

sublimation

A change of state from solid to gas

deposition

A change of state from gas to solid

Particles

Tiny atoms that make up matter

Compound

2 or more different atoms bonded together in a set ratio
