Heat, cool and compress atoms, molecules and watch as they change between solid.
Heat, cool and compress atoms and molecules and watch as they change between solid, liquid and gas phases.
Sample Learning Goals:
- Describe characteristics of three states of matter: solid, liquid and gas.
- Compare particles in the three different phases.
- Explain freezing and melting with molecular level detail.
- Recognize that different substances have different properties, including melting, freezing and boiling temperatures.
