Final Answer:
This worksheet explains the properties of solids, liquids, and gases. Here’s a quick summary to help you understand:
Solids (like a tree or bike):
- Keep their own shape.
- Can’t be squished.
- Particles are stuck close together.
- Have a fixed size (volume).
Liquids (like rain or juice):
- Take the shape of whatever container they’re in.
- Can’t be squished.
- Particles are close but can slide past each other.
- Have a fixed size (volume).
Gases (like smoke or air in balloons):
- No fixed shape — they spread out everywhere.
- Easy to squish or compress.
- Particles fly around freely with almost no attraction.
- No fixed size — they expand to fill any space.
You don’t need to solve anything here — this is an informational chart to help you learn how matter behaves in different states. Just read and remember the key points for each state!
