In which state of matter do the particles spread and fill all the space available to them?
Both gas and plasma behave in this way.
The fact that light can exert a pressure on matter suggests that it is made of particles called?
The particles of light are called photons.
What is the transfer of light energy to particles of matter called?
Absorption
The energy of moving particles in matter is called?
kinetic energy
What is the transfer of thermal energy by collisions of particles of matter?
That is the conservation of energy. when particles collide no energy is lost but is transferred from one form to another.And this mechanism of heat transfer is called conduction.basically heat transfer is transfer of energy. conduction and convection but require material medium , this shows how energy can behave like particals. radiation on the other hand is a trasfer of heat which requires no material medium and shows how energy behaves like waves. so heats can behave as both particals and waves of energy. its called the dual nature of matter or energy since matter is basically potential energy.
How do particle matter behave?
I know that particles in matter move a lot but i not quite sure what it means
Tiny particles which makes matter?
These particles are called atoms.
Is energy made of the same particles as matter?
Energy has absolutely no volume or mass. However, energy and matter can be interchanged, and highly energetic particles behave as if they have more mass. When antimatter and matter collide, they annihilate, releasing their equivalent in energy. The "particles" of which energy can be said to be composed are "photons" which are discreet, massless packets of energy. The so-called "solar wind" is not energy, but consists of high-energy particles emitted by the Sun along with its radiated energy.

Light is made of elementary particles called what?
Well, they're probably not really particles ... but they're called "photons".
What is the smallest particles of matter called?
an atom
Would protons behave as alpha particles?
Only partially. Protons have 1/4 the mass of alpha particles and 1/2 the charge. As a result, their ability to interact with matter is less.

Yes, they are called atoms.

Elements called building blocks of matter?
These particles are the atoms.
