What must every form of matter possess?
Mass and volume
Weight and volume
Mass and momentum
Heat and volume
Which is not part of the definition of the particle theory of matter?
In all matter, particles are arranged in a tight crystal-like matrix
All particles of one substance are identical
All matter is made up of particles
Temperature affects the speed at which particles move
In what state are particles closest together?
Solid
Plasma
Liquid
Gas
What happens when potassium permanganate dissolves in water?
The potassium permanganate particles are attracted to the water particles and move toward them
The water particles move further apart from each other
The potassium permanganate particles are attracted to each other more than to the water particles so the potassium permanganate clumps up and sinks
The water particles and the potassium permanganate particles combine to create a new kind of particle
In which state or states of matter can particles flow?
Liquid and gas
Liquid only
Liquid, gas and solid
Solid only
In which state or states of matter can particles spread out in all directions?
Gas
Gas and liquid
Liquid only
Gas, liquid and solid
Sometimes when an earthquake occurs beneath a very sandy area, the sand particles begin to slide past each other to create a very unstable surface in which buildings can actually sink.
In this case the sandy soil is acting like a

solid.
both gas and liquid.
Workers are pouring liquid iron into a mould.
When the iron finally cools, its particle arrangement will most closely resemble which image below?
When most fluids cool to form a solid, they take up less volume. Which substance is the exception?
