States of Matter Most common types: u. Solid u. Liquid u. Gas u. Plasma 2
States of Matter Basis of Classification of the Four Types ØBased upon particle arrangement ØBased upon energy of particles ØBased upon distance between particles 3
States of Matter The Classification and Properties of Matter Depend Upon Microscopic Structure ØParticle arrangement ØParticle energy ØParticle to particle distance 4
States of Matter Solids §Particles tightly packed; vibrating about a fixed position. §definite shape and a definite volume. 5
States of Matter Solids Particle Movement Examples 6
States of Matter Liquids §Particles: tightly packed, but are far enough apart to slide over one another § indefinite shape but a definite volume 7
States of Matter Liquids Particle Movement Examples 8
States of Matter Gases §particles are very far apart and move freely. § have an indefinite shape and an indefinite volume. 9
States of Matter Gases Particle Movement Examples 10
States of Matter Plasma § plasma is an ionized gas plasma is a very good conductor of electricity § §indefinite shape and an indefinite volume (like gases) 11
States of Matter Plasma Particles. 12
Changing States u Heat u As = Energy. . we increase the amount of heat, we increase the speed of the particles this changes the state of matter.
