Particle Theory of Matter
Solids Liquids Gases
Usually hard to Can change shape Spread out Atomic
break Particles are close structure
Particles are closely but a little spread Particles move at an
compact apart astounding speed
Particles are Particles move
vibrating faster than solids
Rules
All things are made of particles
All particles of the same substance are identical
There are spaces between the particles
All particles are attracted to other particles
When particles are heated they move faster and take up more space
All particles are always moving
