States of matter. Computer artwork showing the three states of matter and how any one of them can be converted (arrows) directly into one of the other two - by an increase or reduction of energy in the form of heat. Clockwise from top the three states of matter are; gas,liquid and solid. Molecules are in constant motion. In solids,the molecules have a strong attraction are close together and have limited motion. In a liquid,the molecules have more energy,which enables them to overcome some of the attraction and move more freely. In a gas,attraction between particles is minimised and they move freely throughout the container | |
