Changes in states of matter
Recall
What is matter?
Types of matter.
Characteristics of matter
Kinetic theory of gasses
All matter is composed of small
particles (atoms, molecules and
ions)
They are is constant and random
movement
They constantly collide with each
other and the walls of the
container
Kinetic theory of solid
Kinetic theory of liquid
Kinetic theory of gas
Changes in state of matter
Changes in state of matter
happens because..
Explain using kinetic theory of
matter the following process
Melting
Boiling/ Evaporation
Sublimation
Freezing
Condensation
Deposition
Example: Melting
Melting is a process that changes
solid to liquid
Particles in solid receives heat
energy, the molecules vibrates
vigorously and moves faster
The space between particles
increases
The force between particles will
become weaker
The arrangement of particles is not
Topical test
Create a comic strip that compares and
contrasts the properties of solids, liquids, and
gasses.
Choose a SOLID object and characters
Your words and pictures must show you
understandthe similarities and differences
between the 3 states of matterandhow your
object changes from one state to another.
Your comic should include a title frame on
front cover of book.
Your comic should include an end frame.
This frame should explain how your object
goes through all three states of matter in real
