Open Ended
What did you notice about the States of Matter?
6
Multiple Select
What are the three States of Matter that are easiest to find on Earth?
Gasses
Liquids
Plasma
Solids
7
Poll
What makes a State of Matter change its Phase?
Energy
Temperature
Pressure
All of the above
8
Solid
What do you notice?
9
Multiple Choice
A Solid State of Matter has a definite shape and volume.
True
False
10
Solids
What do you notice?

Open Ended
Describe the difference between a crystalline solid and an amorphous solid:
12
Liquid
What do you notice?
13
Multiple Choice
A Liquid is a State of Matter with no definite shape but definite volume.
True
False
14
Multiple Choice
The particles in a a Liquid are:
loosely packed
easily slide against each other
able to take the form of their container
All of the above
15
Gas
What do you notice?
16
Multiple Choice
The Gas State of Matter has no definite shape or volume.
True
False
17
Multiple Choice
In a Gaseous State of Matter, particles:
bounce around
bump into one another
expand to fill whatever space they're in
all of the above

Phase Changes in States of Matter
Solid to Liquid is melting (an increase in heat, energy, or pressure)
Liquid to Gas is evaporation (an increase in heat, energy, or pressure)
Gas to Plasma is ionization (an increase in heat, energy, or pressure)
This shows how matter moves from a lower level to a higher level.
20
Multiple Choice
What causes a Phase Change from a lower level to a higher level in a State of Matter?
Heat
Pressure
Energy
All of the above
21
Phase Changes in States of Matter
Plasma to Gas is deionization (a decrease in heat, energy, or pressure)
Gas to Liquid is condensation (a decrease in heat, energy, or pressure)
Liquid to Solid is freezing (a decrease in heat, energy, or pressure)
This shows how matter moves from a higher level to a lower level.
22
Multiple Choice
What causes a Phase Change in a State of Matter from a higher level to a lower level?
Loss of heat
Loss of energy
Loss of pressure
All of the above
