Phases of Matter Quiz

A phase can be defined as a homogeneous portion of a system that has uniform physical and chemical characteristics.

Solid, Liquid, Gas, Plasma

A solid has a definite volume and shape. Particles within a solid are packed very close together in an ordered arrangement, resulting in a definite shape and volume due to strong forces of attraction between its constituent particles.

<p>Liquids have a definite volume but no definite shape. They take the shape of the container in which they are placed due to relatively weaker force of attraction among its particles.</p> Signup and view all the answers
