LESSON OBJECTIVES
At the end of the lesson, you should be able to:
State the distinguishing properties of
solids, liquids, and gases.
Describe the structure of solids, liquids,
and gases in terms of particle
separation, arrangement, and types of
motion.
SOLID
has definite shape and volume
has particles that are packed
closely together and usually
arranged in a regular pattern
LIQUID
has definite volume, but has no
fixed shape
has particles that can move and
are in close contact
GAS
has no definite volume and
shape
has particles that are widely
separated
LET´S BEGIN
LOOK AT THIS DIAGRAM
PLASMA
has no definite volume and
shape
has charged particles that are
widely separated
EXAMPLES OF PLASMA
lightning
fireball
flame
comet's tail
