Y9 Matter

2. Process by which particles in a solid gain energy and become a liquid
5. Process of getting smaller due to the space between particles decreasing (particles themselves do not change size).
6. State of matter that has a fixed shape and volume. Particles are closely packed, can’t be poured and don’t take the shape of the container.
7. Process by which the particles in a solid gain energy and become a gas. There is no intermediate, liquid phase.
9. Process by which a substance is converted from liquid to gas state
10. The movement of particles from an area of high concentration to low concentration
11. Rapid change of state from a liquid to gas
12. State of matter that has a fixed volume and takes the shape of the container. Particles are closely packed but can move around each other.

1. Process by which the particles in a gas loose energy and become a solid. There is no intermediate, liquid phase.
3. Process of getting larger due to the space between particles increasing due to vibrations (particles themselves do not change size).
4. Process by which particles in a liquid lose energy and become a solid
5. Process by which particles in gas lose energy and become a liquid
8. State of matter that has no fixed shape and fills a container. Particles are far apart, and very weakly held together.
