1.3 explain the changes in arrangement, movement
and energy of particles during these interconversions.
As matter
is heated, the particles gain more
kinetic energy and vibrate more (solids) or move increasingly rapidly (liquids and gases). If enough
heat is supplied, a change of state is seen as this energy overcomes forces of attraction between the
particles and they can move further apart. The reverse is true when matter is cooled and particles lose kinetic energy.
