    The key takeaways are that matter can exist in three states - solid, liquid and gas - and the properties of each state depend on how tightly bound or energetic the particles are. Changing temperature affects the motion and energy of particles in each material.

    The three common states of matter are solids, liquids and gases. Solids have a fixed shape and volume, with particles tightly packed in a regular pattern. Liquids have a fixed volume but not shape, with particles able to flow freely past one another. Gases have neither fixed shape nor volume and their particles have the highest energy and are most spread out.

    Diffusion is the process by which particles are distributed within a substance or between substances due to their random motion from areas of higher concentration to lower concentration. It occurs more rapidly in gases due to their particles having higher energy and being more spread out than in liquids or solids. Higher temperatures also increase the rate of diffusion by increasing particle motion.

    CHEMISTRY TEST

    1. Matter can exist in 3 forms namely solids, liquids and gases.

    (a) Name the only state of matter which can be easily compressed.

    (b) In which state of matter are the particles fixed in a regular pattern?

    (c) _______________ has the least density among the three states of matter.

    (d)________________ has the maximum energy among the three states of matter.

    (e) The particles in a substance stay the same, whether it is a solid, liquid, or a gas.
    (True/False) (1+1+1+1+1 = 5 marks)

    2. Jenny boils 2 litres of water in a large pan in her kitchen. After half an
    hour, Jenny cools the water and measures it in a jug. There is only 1 litre
    left.

    (a) Explain what has happened to the water that is not in the jug.

    (b) Jenny notices that there are droplets of water on her kitchen window. Name the
    process that has taken place to form the droplets.

    (c) Jenny freezes the water in the jug to make some ice cubes. She thinks that the
    particles will change when they change from a liquid to a solid. Is Jenny correct?
    Explain your answer. (1+1+3 = 5 marks)
    3. A student uses a deodorant in the corner of a changing room. After a
    couple of minutes, everyone in that room can smell the deodorant.

    (a) Name the process and explain how it works.

    (b) The deodorant contains liquefied gas under high pressure. Therefore they flow
    very easily and have very low density. Is this statement true? Explain your answer,

    (2+2=4 marks)

    4. Drivers are advised to check their car’s tyre pressures before setting
    out on a long journey, particularly of the car is heavily loaded.

    (a) Explain how the air molecules inside the car tyre exert pressure on the walls of
    the tyre.

    (b) In terms of the gas particles, explain why tyre pressure is increased when the
    car is heavily loaded.

    (c) Tyres at high very high pressure can be dangerous. Is this statement true or
    false? Explain your answer.
