The particle theory states that all particles are made of matter, these particles are in constant motion and there is a force of attraction between these particles. Solids have more closely packed particles and thse particles get looser as they progress through the states from liquid to gas. Therefore, moleculary, the molecules move faster and faster and appear farther and farther away from each other.

Which phases of a substance can exist whe the pressure is less than the pressure of the triple point?
All three phases.
Can you observe the phases of Mars on earth?
no Mars does not go through phases as seen from earth.
What is the temperature at which a substance may exist in all three phases?
The triple point of a substance is the temperature and pressure at which all three phases are in equilibrium. The exact temperature and pressure depend upon the identity of the substance.
In which phases will the molecules of a substance fill whatever size container they are placed in?
This is a gas.
Which phases of a substance can exist when the pressure is less than the pressure of a triple point?
liquid & vapor
What is the typical order for a substance's transformation through phases?

What is a chart that shows the temperatures at which a substance passes through the solid liquid and then gas phases?
It's conveniently called a phase diagram.
How many phases contains a single substance?
A single substance has one phase.
What happens to the moon as it goes through its phases?
nothing basically happens the earth just blocks the sun so that the moon doesn't get so much at sertain times.
Which phases of a substance can exist whe the pressure is less than the pressure of the triple point?
All three phases.
What is the phases change in which a substance changes from a gas to a liquid?
Condensation
Why are homo and heterogeneous mixtures different?
There is no such thing as a homozygous mixture but homozygous is having identical pairs of genes for any given pair of hereditary characteristics. A heterogeneous mixture is where the substance is not evenly mixed, and a homogeneous mixture is where the two or more substances are evenly mixed molecularly but not bonded together.
How many phases does your moon go through?
8 phases.
What are the changes in shape the moon seems to go through called?
The changes in shape that the moon goes through are called phases.
What is as sentence for phases?
The moon has different phases that it passes through, just like we have different phases in our lifetimes.
What is the term for the temperature at which a substance changes phases from a solid into a liquid?
Melting point
