Properties of Solids, Liquids, and Gases

A solid has a definite _________masstexturevolume and a _________3Dirregulardefinite shape. The particles in a solid are _________free to move aroundmotionlesspacked tightly together. Particles in a solid move by _________sliding past one anothervibrating back and forth slightlyjiggling around. _________ViscosityAmorphousCrystalline solids soften before melting. The particles in this type of solid are not arranged in regular pattern. Amorphous solids _________dodon't have a distinct melting point. Crystalline solids have a _________distinct color and shapedistinct pattern and melting point.

Liquids have no _________volumemassshape of their own. A liquid takes the shape of its container. Without a container liquids spread into a wide, shallow puddle. The _________shapevolumecolor of a liquid does not change. _________ViscosityValidityVariable is a term used to describe a liquids resistance to flow. Some liquids flow easier than others because the particles in liquids with _________high viscositylow viscosity are spread further apart.

Gases can change _________massvolume very easily. The _________containerdensity determines the volume and shape of a gas. The movement of gas particles could be described as _________staying in a fixed positionspreading apart quickly.
