5 states of matter solids

All matter consists of atoms and molecules. Each of these atoms and molecules has certain amount of energy. The level of this energy decides the state in which the matter exists. When heat energy is supplied to matter, this energy level rises. As a result of..

: Crystalline Amorphous In a crystalline substance, a definite well-defined external geometric shape such as cube, octahedron or tetrahedron characterizes the solid..

The States of Matter - Matter occurs in four states: Solid, Liquid, Gas and Plas..

States of Matter - Normally matter exists in three forms: Solid Liquid Gases Heat energy can bring about a change of state in matter from solid to liquid and liquid to gaseous state. Suppose a solid is heated ..

The molecules in a solid are very closely packed. The inter-molecular force of attraction is very strong in solids. Hence solids have a definite size and shape. Molecules of a solid vibrate about their mean positio..

The classification of matter into three different states, namely solid, liquid and gaseous state is termed as the physical classification of matter. Most properties of solid, liquid and gases that can be observed with our sense organ..

Inter-conversion of the States of Matter - Depending on the conditions of temperature and pressure, matter can exist in any of the three main states i.e., solid, liquid or gas. Matter can be inter-converted from one state to the ..

Effect of Temperature and Pressure on States of Matter - When we heat a solid, we add energy to the system increasing the vibration of the particles. Eventually these particles break free from their binding forces and melt. The normal melting point of a crystal is the ..

A solid is that form of matter that possesses rigidity and hence possesses a definite shape and a definite volum..

Introduction - The classification of matter into three different states, namely solid, liquid and gaseous state is termed as the physical classification of matter. Most properties of solid, liquid and gases that can be observed with our se..
