Questions and Answers

What characterizes the particle arrangement in solids?

  • Particles are packed tightly but can change their position.
  • Particles are widely spaced and move rapidly in all directions.
  • Particles are in a structured pattern and vibrate in place. (correct)
  • Particles are loosely arranged and can move freely.
  • Which statement is true regarding liquids?

  • Liquids have a fixed volume but can change shape. (correct)
  • Liquids have both fixed volume and shape.
  • Liquids can change both shape and volume.
  • Liquids have a fixed shape but can change volume.
  • How do the kinetic energy levels of particles compare in solids versus gases?

  • Particles in solids have higher kinetic energy than those in gases.
  • Particles in gases have higher kinetic energy and move more than those in solids. (correct)
  • Particles in gases have no kinetic energy.
  • Particles in gases move less and have less kinetic energy than in solids.

    Study Notes

    States of Matter

    • Solids have a fixed shape and volume.
    • Liquids have a fixed volume but can change shape.
    • Gases can change both shape and volume.
    • All matter is composed of tiny, moving particles.
    • The particles in a substance are the same, regardless of its state of matter (solid, liquid, or gas).
    • A particle can be an atom or a molecule.
    • Particles have different amounts of motion in each state of matter.
    • Kinetic energy is the energy of motion.
    • The particles that make up matter have kinetic energy.
    • The particles in all states of matter are in constant motion.
    • Increased particle motion means increased kinetic energy.
    • In solids, particles are tightly packed and vibrate in place.
    • In liquids, particles can move past each other but maintain contact.
