11 Introduction to the particulate nature of matter and chemical change States of matter Everything is made up of matter The characteristics of matter are Made up of particles – atoms molecules or ions Particles are in constant motion Occupies a volume in space Has a mass Properties of three states of matter Temperature.

SS1 Chemistry First Term: Particulate Nature of Matter

Particles All matter is particulate in nature This basically means that between separate bits of matter there are spaces which contain no matter In science it is called the “atomic nature of matter” It is generally agreed that the Greek philosopher Leucippus and his student Democritus were the first to propose this idea about 440 BC.

Particulate Nature of Matter Properties of solid liquid and gases • In gases particles are constantly colliding and changing directions resulting in random movement • Gases can be compressed easily Pressure and volume are inversely proportional This means an increase in pressure at constant temperature results in a decrease in volume.
