| A | B |
| Plasma | A superheated gas, rarely found on earth |
| Amorphous solid | A solid that can slowly change it's shape over time |
| Crystalline solid | A solid made up of crystals arranged in a repeated pattern |
| Melting | A SOLID changes to a LIQUID by INCREASING heat energy |
| Freezing | A LIQUID changes to a SOLID by DECREASING heat energy |
| Vaporization | LIQUID changes to a GAS by INCREASING heat energy |
| Condensation | A GAS changes to a LIQUID by DECREASING heat energy |
| Sublimation | A SOLID changes directly to a GAS due to an EXTREME INCREASE in heat energy |
| Evaporation | A type of vaporization that happens when a liquid SLOWLY heats and turns into a gas over a period of time |
| Melting point | The temperature when a solid begins to turn into a liquid |
| Freezing point | The temperature at which a liquid begins to turn into a solid |
| Boiling point | The temperature when a liquid begins to turn into a gas |
| Solid's DENSITY/PARTICLE ARRANGMENT | HIGH/TIGHTLY PACKED |
| Solid's ENERGY/PARTICLE MOVEMENT | LOW/VIBRATING |
| Solid's SHAPE | DEFINITE - does not need container to keep it's shape |
| Solid's VOLUME | DEFINITE - container does not determine the size of a solid |
| Liquid's DENSITY/PARTICLE ARRANGEMENT | MEDIUM/ LOOSELY PACKED |
| Liquid's ENERGY/PARTICLE MOVEMENT | MEDIUM/ROLL AROUND EACH OTHER |
| Liquid's SHAPE | CHANGING - it's shape depends on shape of container |
| Liquid's VOLUME | DEFINITE - always takes up the same amount of space, no matter it's shape or container |
| Gas's DENSITY/PARTICLE ARRANGEMENT | LOW/NOT TOUCHING |
| Gas's ENERGY/PARTICLE MOVEMENT | HIGH/RAPIDLY COLLIDING |
| Gas's SHAPE | CHANGING - it needs container to keep it's shape |
| Gas's VOLUME | CHANGING - it expands to fit the size of it's container |
| VOLUME | size or amount of space matter takes up |
