Solids:
Regular arrangement of particles
Tightly packed particles
Vibrate about a fixed point (unless at 0 degrees Kelvin)
As they increase in temperature, the vibrations become larger
Solids have a fixed shape and volume
Gases:
Randomly moving particles
Very fast moving particles
Particles are very far apart
Gases fill container
As they increase in temperature, particles move more quickly
