A Matter of States

One afternoon in an exciting science class, we learned about matter and the states they can be in. Matter is anything you can feel such as solids, liquids and gases. Matter also takes up space and has weight. The class made models of matter's three states to see how fast they each move. The solids molecules are very cramped so they have very little space to move making it hard. The liquids molecules have more space to move around so they go faster then solids molecules making the liquid easy to go through. The gases molecules have enough room to move very fast, you can't see gas unlike liquids and solids. The models really helped the class understand how matter works that exciting day.
