Particle Theory

                                - All substances are made of tiny particles.

                                - The particles are always in motion.

                                - Adding energy causes the particles to move faster.

Thermal effects on matter

                - Expansion and Contraction

                - Heat Capacity

                - Changes of State

How the particle theory can explain changes of state.
