3.2: Particles in solids liquids and gases.

- Solids: Particles vibrate in their positions.
- Liquids: Move from their positions but always
in contact with each other’s.
- Gas: Move fast and free
- TEMPERATURE: High temperatures, particles
in solid vibrate faster.
- INTERMOLECULAR FORCES: Solid strong,
Liquid weak, gas no.
3.3: Properties of solids.
- Brittle: They break if you smash them.
- Malleable: flexible.
- Hardness, hardness.
- Soluble: They dissolve in water.
- Conduct: Conduct heat or electricity.
- Alloys: Mixture of metals

3.5: Understanding liquids and gases.
- Viscosity is the ability to flow of the liquids
and gases.
- It is easy to compress a gas but you cannot
compress a liquid.
- The temperature affects the solubility in
gases.

3.6: Changing state.

- Melting point/Freezing point: temperature at

which one pure substance melts or freezes.
- Extra heat – Latent heat.

3.7: Evaporation.
- Boiling only occurs when the gas particles gain
enough energy from their surroundings to
leave the liquid.

3.8: Thermal expansion.

- Liquids have more kinetic energy than solids.

(kinetic energy is the energy an object has
because of his motion.)

3.9: Models.

- A model of water in 3 states.
