What are the three elements to the Particle Model of Matter

• Space between particles, everything made up of particles, particles are always moving

• Thermal energy, kinetic energy, temperature

• Particles can be heated or cooled, some things are not made up particles, particles are easy seen

When the temperature of matter increases the particles...

• speed up and move closer
• speed up and move farther apart
• slow down and move closer together
• slow down and move farther apart
