Study Notes
States of Matter
- Experiment aims to compare the properties of substances
- Heat is mentioned in the observation, indicating a possible thermal experiment
Solid State
- Has a definite shape and volume
- Particles are close together with some vibrational movement
- Not easily compressed
Liquid State
- Has no definite shape, but a fixed volume
- Particles are close together, but with more space than in solids
- Particles can move and slide past each other
- Liquids can change shape
Gas State
- Has neither a definite shape nor a fixed volume
- Particles are far apart, moving rapidly and randomly
- Particles have enough energy to overcome attractive forces and spread out
Plasma State
- Consists of ions and free electrons
Bose-Einstein Condensate
- A state of matter at extremely low temperatures
