Particles and Matter

Particle spacing and movement differ among solids, liquids and gases. Heating generally increases particle motion.

What to remember

  • Solid particles remain in fixed relative positions but vibrate.
  • Liquid particles can move past one another.
  • Gas particles are widely spaced and move freely.
  • Heating increases average particle kinetic energy.
  • State changes are physical changes.

Key words

particle model — model of matter as particles
solid — closely packed particles with fixed arrangement
liquid — particles close but able to flow
gas — widely spaced moving particles
state change — change between solid/liquid/gas
How to use this drill: review the short notes when learning, then close them on later attempts and practise from memory. The rotating bank delays a full set repeat for 25 attempts on the same browser.

What this Year 7 / Grade 7 science drill practises

Use particle models to explain states and changes. This daily drill is designed as short retrieval practice rather than a complete course. It can be used for school revision, homework, warm-ups or independent practice.

  • Gas particles are widely spaced and move freely.
  • Heating increases average particle kinetic energy.
  • State changes are physical changes.

International use: the topic is organised by broadly useful school-level progression. Exact curriculum timing and terminology can vary between countries, states and schools.
