Study Notes

Particle Theory of Matter

Explains the behavior of particles in various states of matter: solid, liquid, and gas.
Asserts that particles are in constant motion regardless of their state.

Movement and Speed

The velocity of particle movement fluctuates based on the state of matter.
In solids, particles vibrate in fixed positions with minimal movement.
In liquids, particles are more mobile, sliding past one another while remaining close together.
In gases, particles move freely and rapidly, resulting in greater distances between them.
