What does the Particle Theory state about the composition of matter?

• Matter is composed of continuous substances.

• Matter is composed of particles.

• Matter is composed only of liquids and gases.

• Matter does not have any specific composition.

According to the Particle Theory, how do particles of one substance compare to particles of another substance?

• Particles of one substance are larger than those of another substance.

• Particles of one substance are the same as those of another substance.

• Particles of one substance are always in a solid state compared to another substance.

• Particles of different substances are made of different particles.

What does the Particle Theory suggest about the movement of particles?

• Particles are never moving.

• Particles move only when heated.

• Particles are always moving.

• Particles move only in liquids and gases.

According to the Particle Theory, what is the relationship between the energy of particles and their temperature?

• The more energy particles have, the slower they move and the lower their temperature.

• The more energy particles have, the faster they move and the lower their temperature.

• The more energy particles have, the faster they move and the higher their temperature.

• The energy of particles has no effect on their temperature.

What does the Particle Theory say about forces between particles?

• There are no forces between particles.

• There are only repulsive forces between particles.

• There are attractive forces between particles.

• The forces between particles are not significant.

What happens when you break a substance into successively smaller pieces according to the Particle Theory?

• It changes into a different substance

• It disappears completely

• It eventually comes to the smallest piece, a particle

• It becomes a liquid
