    2.1.) States of Matter (BIO40A)

    Uploaded by

    Mary Ferl Jasmin Lupague
    The document discusses the four states of matter: solids, liquids, gases, and plasma. It describes the characteristics of each state in terms of particle arrangement, energy, and distance between particles. Solids have tightly packed particles that vibrate in a fixed position. Liquids also have tightly packed particles that can slide over one another. Gas particles are far apart and move freely. Plasma is an ionized gas that conducts electricity and is affected by magnetic fields. Examples of where plasma can be found include flames, lightning, auroras, stars like the sun, and in cold plasma devices.

    STATES OF MATTER

     Based upon particle arrangement


     Based upon energy of particles
     Based upon distance between particles
    Kinetic Theory of Matter

    Matter is made up of particles which are in


    continual random motion.
    STATES OF MATTER
    SOLIDS
    •Particles of solids are tightly
    packed, vibrating about a
    fixed position.

    •Solids have a definite shape


    and a definite volume.

    Heat
    STATES OF MATTER
    LIQUID
     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.
    Heat
    STATES OF MATTER
    GAS
     Particles of gases are
    very far apart and
    move freely.

     Gases have an
    indefinite shape and
    an indefinite volume.

    PLASMA
     A plasma is an ionized
    gas.
     A plasma is a very good
    conductor of electricity
    and is affected by
    magnetic fields.
