4 States of Matter The Four States of Matter Four States  Solid  Liquid  Gas

5 States of Matter The Three States of Matter Basis of Classification of the Four Types  Based upon particle arrangement  Based upon energy of particles  Based upon distance between particles

6 States of Matter Solids  Particles of solids are tightly packed, vibrating about a fixed position.  Solids have a definite shape and a definite volume because the particles are locked into place.

7 States of Matter Solids Particle Movement Examples

8 States of Matter Liquids  Particles of liquids are tightly packed, but are far enough apart to slide over one another.  Liquids have an indefinite shape and a definite volume. They can move because they have free space between their particles
