    Water is made of two hydrogen atoms and one oxygen atom. It exists in three states of matter - solid, liquid, and gas - depending on temperature and the movement and arrangement of its molecules. Solids have tightly packed molecules with little movement, liquids have freely flowing molecules that can vibrate and rotate, and gases have the most energy and fastest moving molecules. The various phase changes between states - such as melting, freezing, evaporation, and condensation - involve adding or removing energy.

    States of Matter/Facts

    - The chemical formula for water is H2O.


    - The three states of matter are solid, liquid and gas.
    - The solid particles are compacted together while the liquid particles flow freely.
    - There are three atoms in water, two hydrogen atoms and one oxygen atom.
    - Gas particles move faster as there is more kinetic energy.
    - The more compacted a molecule is, the more the kinetic energy increases.
    - The differences of solid and liquid water are temperature, kinetic energy, and particles.
    - Liquid molecules can vibrate, rotate, and slide.
    - To de-excite something, you remove energy from it.
    - Solid water is colder than liquid water.
    - Solid to gas is called sublimation.
    - Solid to liquid is melting.
    - Gas to solid is deposition.
    - Gas to liquid is condensation.
    - Liquid to solid is freezing.
    - Liquid to gas is evaporation.
