Particles of Matter
During a science investigation, students collected data as this to help support their claim.
What is evidence?
This state of matter has a definite volume but an indefinite shape, with particles sliding around each other freely.
What is a liquid?
To trap and track all matter during an investigation, students set up this type of system where nothing can get in or out.
What is a closed system?
This state of matter has an indefinite volume and an indefinite shape, with particles moving around freely and expanding to fill containers.
What is a gas?
The heating of liquid water causes it to change from a liquid into a gas, a process known as this.
What is evaporate?
This state of matter has a definite shape and a definite volume, with particles locked rigidly in place.
hat is a solid?
When water evaporates, students observe this rise up toward the plastic wrap
What is vapor (or water vapor)?
As heating continues, trapped gas moves faster and takes up more space, causing this container material to expand.
