    Study Notes

    States of Matter

    • Three states of matter: Solids, Liquids, Gases
    • Each state of matter has different properties and arrangements of particles
    • Solids, liquids, and gases are made of particles

    Solids

    • Solids usually do not flow or change shape
    • Solids cannot be compressed
    • Particles are closely packed
    • Volume remains the same

    Liquids

    • Liquids can change shape and flow
    • Liquids take on the shape of the container
    • Liquids do not easily compress
    • Volume remains the same

    Gases

    • Gases change shape and their volume
    • Gases can spread out in all directions
    • Gases can be compressed

    Acids and Alkalis

    • Acids usually taste sour
    • Alkalis usually taste soapy
    • pH scale measures acidity/alkalinity
    • Neutral substances are neither acid nor alkali
    • Different indicators show different pH levels
    • Universal indicators show a range of colors for different pH levels
    • Litmus paper turns red in acids and blue in alkalis
    • Red Cabbage indicator changes color in different pH levels

    Neutralisation

    • Neutralisation is a reaction when an acid and an alkali are mixed together
    • This reaction produces a neutral substance
