Question

practice: summary chart
refer back to your notes and complete the table below to summarize what we know thus far about states of matter. if one of the rows doesnt apply to a state, just mark that section of the table as not applicable. under \others\, list any properties specific to that state of matter. under \particle diagram\, sketch a drawing of the arrangement of particles in each state of matter

	solids	liquids	gases
shape
ke
movement
imf
density
fluidity
compressibility
diffusion
others
particle diagram

Explanation:

Step1: Define volume property

Solids have a definite volume. Liquids have a definite volume. Gases have an indefinite volume as they expand to fill the container.

Step2: Define shape property

Solids have a definite shape. Liquids take the shape of the container they are in. Gases have an indefinite shape and fill the entire container.

Step3: Define kinetic - energy (KE) property

Solids have low kinetic energy as particles vibrate in place. Liquids have moderate kinetic energy as particles can move past each other. Gases have high kinetic energy as particles move freely and rapidly.

Step4: Define movement property

In solids, particles vibrate around a fixed position. In liquids, particles can slide and flow past one another. In gases, particles move in straight - line paths until they collide with other particles or the container walls.

Step5: Define intermolecular force (IMF) property

Solids have strong intermolecular forces that hold particles close together. Liquids have weaker intermolecular forces compared to solids but still strong enough to keep particles in contact. Gases have very weak intermolecular forces.

Step6: Define density property

Solids generally have high density. Liquids usually have lower density than solids (except for some cases like water - ice). Gases have very low density.

Step7: Define fluidity property

Solids are not fluid. Liquids are fluid as they can flow. Gases are highly fluid.

Step8: Define compressibility property

Solids are incompressible. Liquids are almost incompressible. Gases are highly compressible.

Step9: Define diffusion property

Solids have very slow diffusion. Liquids have moderate diffusion. Gases have rapid diffusion.

Step10: Define 'Others' property

For solids, they may have a crystalline or amorphous structure. For liquids, surface tension can be a notable property. For gases, they follow gas laws such as Boyle's law, Charles's law etc.

Step11: Particle diagram

For solids, draw particles closely packed in an orderly or disorderly pattern depending on whether it is a crystal or amorphous solid. For liquids, draw particles close together but able to move past one another. For gases, draw particles far apart and moving randomly.

Answer:

	SOLIDS	LIQUIDS	GASES
Shape	Definite	Takes container shape	Indefinite
KE	Low	Moderate	High
Movement	Vibrate around fixed position	Slide past each other	Move freely in straight - line paths
IMF	Strong	Weaker than solids	Very weak
Density	High	Lower than solids (usually)	Very low
Fluidity	No	Yes	Yes (highly)
Compressibility	Incompressible	Almost incompressible	Highly compressible
Diffusion	Very slow	Moderate	Rapid
Others	May have crystalline or amorphous structure	Surface tension	Follow gas laws
Particle Diagram	Closely - packed (orderly or disorderly)	Close together, can move past	Far apart, move randomly
