    Study Notes

    Matter and Particle Theory

    • Matter is anything that has mass and occupies space.
    • The particle theory of matter (kinetic molecular theory) explains the behavior of atoms or molecules and their interactions in different phases (solid, liquid, gas) and transitions between them.

    Activity 1 (Identify Matter)

    • Examples of matter: Air inside a balloon, Heart, Smoke, Water, Carbon Dioxide
    • Examples that are NOT matter: Flour, Air, Light, Stone, Heat
