Which form of matter does not take the shape of its container?

• liquid
• gas
• solid
• air

At higher temperatures

•   a liquid will freeze
• particles in an object move faster and the object has higher kinetic energy
• a gas will condense
• particles in an object move slower and the object has less kinetic energy

Particles (molecules) in a ______________________ have the most kinetic energy compared to the other states of matter.

• gas
• solid
• liquid

A gas

• has definite shape and definite volume
• has a definite volume but no definite shape
• has indefinite shape and indefinite volume
• has a definite shape but no definite volume

Which state of matter has the most tightly packed molecules?

• solid
• liquid
• gas

Define a liquid.

• Indefinite shape, indefinite volume
• Definite shape, definite volume
• Found in stars
• Definite volume, indefinite shape

The state of matter that has definite size and definite shape is

• Solid
• Liquid
• Gas
• All 3

Particles of a liquid

• are tightly packed together and stay in a fixed position.
• have no viscosity.
• decrease in volume with increasing temperature.
• are free to move around one another but still are still loosely connected.
