Particle model and States of
Matter Learning Intention: We will understand the states of matter
Success Criteria: SWBAT
• define ‘matter’ • list the three states of matter • draw a particle model of the three states of matter • describe the differences between solids, liquids and gases • the particle energy to temperature changes
Reflection: Summarise your learning
What do you think is the 4th state of matter it starts with the letter ‘p’? Warm-up: Classifying Objects
1. On a new page, create three
even columns and rule up your lines 2. Put a title on each column: Solid, Liquid, Gas 3. Cut out the images and classify them as a solid, liquid or gas 4. Check with your teacher before you glue the images in your book Matter Matter makes up everything in the world around us. Matter can exist in three different states: • Solid • Liquid • Gas Materials in each of the different states have different properties, that is that they behave and appear in different ways The difference between solids, liquids and gases can be explained by the…
PARTICLE MODEL
● All substances are made up of particles.
● The particles are attracted to each other. Some particles are attracted strongly to each other and others weakly. ● The particles move around. They are described as having kinetic energy. ● The kinetic energy of the particles increases with temperature. Watch the video and note 3 interesting facts that you learned Properties of Solids, Liquids and Gases Why are they different? Explanation of how particle theory relates to the states of matter.
Solid: particles are closely packed and
vibrate in fixed positions.
Liquid: particles are more loosely packed
and move around each other.
Gas: particles are widely spaced and move
freely in all directions. Energy and Temperature
As the temperature of a substance
increases, the particles gain more energy and are able to move around.
For example, as water boils in a kettle,
steam appears from the spout. This is liquid water that has gained enough energy to become a gas Solid The particles in a solid • are close together in a pattern • are held together by strong forces (called bonds) • they cannot move from place to place Liquid The particles in a liquid are, • close together • arranged in a random way
The particles in a liquid
can • move around each other Gas The particles in a gas are • far apart • arranged in a random way
The particles in a gas can
• move quickly in all directions Define these words and draw a picture for solid, liquid and gas
