State the distinguishing properties of solids, liquids and gases
Solids: fixed shape, fixed volume, strong intermolecular forces, particles are very close together, vibrate around a fixed position
Liquids: changes shape to fit container, fixed volume, weaker intermolecular forces than solids, particles are not as packed in solids but close together, move around each other randomly
Gases: no fixed shape, changes volume to fix container, weakest attractive forces, particles far apart and move quickly

Know the terms for the changes in state between solids, liquids and gases
Solid to liquid: freezing
Liquid to solid: melting
Liquid to gas: evaporation
Gas to liquid: condensation
