In this course you will learn about:
The particle model of matter is one of the most useful scientific models because it describes matter in all three states. Understanding how the particles of matter behave is vital if we hope to understand science!
The model also helps us to understand what happens to the particles when matter changes from one state to another.
Video 1: Explores triangular and square numbers.
Video 2: Explores some examples of patterns in whole numbers.
Video 3: Explores some common mistakes which can be made when looking for patterns in whole numbers.
In this unit, you will explore the three phases of matter and then look at the properties and differences between them. You will explore their shape, volume, and kinetic energy.
