5. Matter is defined as anything that has mass and
occupies space/ has some volume.
Everything is made up of matter. The
characteristics of matter are: Made up of particles –
atoms, molecules or ions
Particles are in constant motion
Has a mass
Has a volume
EAXMPLES: Air, water, glass, cement, chair, table
and everything around us is made up of matter.
6. All type of matter is made up of tiny bits called
particles. It is just like a wall made of bricks.
Different arrngemnet, spacing and the movement of
particles makes three different states of matter.
The differnece in properties of states of matter arise
due to ;
Particles arrangement: regular or irregular
Spacing: close/touching each other or far from
each other
Movement: resticted movement/vibrations, sliding
past each other, freely moving in random directions

8. Note that:
Particles in a:
› gas are well separated with no regular arrangement.
› liquid are close together with no regular arrangement.
› solid are tightly packed, usually in a regular pattern.
Particles in a:
› gas vibrate and move freely at high speeds.
› liquid vibrate, move about, and slide past each other.
› solid vibrate (jiggle) but generally do not move from place
to place.

12. Diffusion is the movement of a substance from an area of
high concentration to an area of low concentration.
Diffusion happens in liquids and gases because their
particles move randomly from place to place.
What causes diffusion?
In gases and liquids, particles move randomly from place
to place. The particles collide with each other or with their
container. This makes them change direction. Eventually,
the particles are spread through the whole container.
Diffusion happens on its own, without stirring, shaking or
wafting.

15. Brownian Movement in chemistry is said to
be the random zig-zag/randommotion of a
particle that is usually observed under high
power ultra-microscope. This movement
resembles the exact motion of pollen grains
in water as explained by Robert Brown,
hence, the name Brownian movement.
16. State changes
Substances can exist as a solid, liquid or gas.
Converting from one state to another usually
involves heating or cooling.
Heat must be supplied to a substance for it to
melt, evaporate or boil. For example, you need
to heat ice to melt it, and you need to heat
water to make steam.
Heat must be removed from a substance to
condense or freeze it. In other words, the
substance must be cooled down.
17. The kinetic particle theory explains the
properties of the different states of matter. The
particles in solids, liquids and gases have
different amounts of energy. They are arranged
differently and move in different ways.
The table below summarises the arrangement
and movement of the particles in solids, liquids
and gases, and shows simple diagrams for the
arrangement of the particles.
