Property vs the Particle Nature of Matter
Directions: Write YES on the space provided if the statement is correct, and write NO If the
statement is incorrect.
1. Solids have fixed shape and volume because the particles are held tightly together
due to very strong attraction between them hence, they cannot move aprunt.
2. There are strong forces between the particles of solids.
3. Liquids flow because the particles are packed in a very orderly manner.
4. Gases do not have a fixed shape nor volume because the particles are very far apart
from each other and they move rapidly in a random motion.
5. Gases can be compressed easily because the particles are held by strong attractive
forces.​
