Chapter 3: States of Matter
4 States of Matter
Matter: is anything that has mass and volume
4 States of Matter: solid, liquid, gas, plasma
Solids Definite Shape and definite volume; particles
vibrate in place 2 types: crystalline and amorphous
1. Crystalline: particles are lined up neatly in repeating patterns of rows.
2. Amorphous: particles do not line up in repeated rows
Examples of Solids: Crystalline: Amorphous:
Liquids
Definite volume Indefinite shape (takes shape of container) Particles are not arranged in repeating
patterns; particles slide past each other
Gas
Indefinite volume and indefinite shape Particle move rapidly to get away from each
other
Plasma
Plasma
a. Hot, ionized gas particles.
b. Electrically charged.
c. Most common state in universe.
