States of Matter
Learning Goal:
Students will be able to demonstrate their knowledge of the states of matter through illustrations and descriptions. These illustrations and descriptions should include:
How the molecules in a solid, liquid and gas compare to each other.
How temperature relates to the kinetic energy of molecules.
Procedure:
Open the internet browser and enter the address:
https://phet.colorado.edu/en/simulation/states-of-…
Open the “States of Matter†Simulation and select “Statesâ€Â
Investigation:
1.Predict what the molecules of a solid, liquid and gas look like. Illustrate your prediction with a drawing.
Solid Liquid Gas
2. Complete the table below by exploring the “Solid, Liquid, Gas†tab in the simulation.
Test
your predictions and record your observations by recording the temperature and illustrations of each substance in the three states of matter.

3.Sketch a graph of Kinetic Energy vs. Temperature. Use this graph to describe the relationship between the two concepts.
4. Write a summary paragraph, which includes drawings, to demonstrate you have mastered the learning goal. Be sure to incorporate both concepts of the learning goal:
How the molecules in a solid, liquid and gas compare to each other.
How temperature relates to the kinetic energy of molecules.
Open the “States of Matter†Simulation and select “Phase Changesâ€Â
Explain how a change in temperature affects the pressure inside a container.
Explain this phase diagram by relating what you know about temperature, states of matter and pressure.
