PHET State of Matter- LAB REPORT

The program should start with solid Neon. Describe the spacing and motion of the particles in a solid.

• Far apart and Rapid,Random Motion

• Packed Tightly and Vibrating in place

• Close Together and Slow motion

• Packed Tightly and Fast Motion

What happens as you cool the solid?

• The motion slows

• The motion speeds up

• The motion stays the same

• The motion jumps and freezes

Next, select the gas phase. Describe the spacing and motion of the particles in a gas.

• Packed tightly and vibrating in place

• Far apart and rapid random motion

• Close together and slow motion

• Packed tightly and fast motion

What happens as you cool the gas?

• The particles speed up and bounce

• The particles slow down and move closer

• The particles stop and dance

• The particles vibrate in place
