Question

section 1 three states of matter continued the unique properties of liquids liquids have special properties that the other states of matter do not have. one special property of liquids is surface tension. surface tension is a force that acts on the particles at the surface of a liquid. water has a high surface tension, causing it to form spherical or oval - shaped drops. you may have seen beads of water on an object. each liquid has a different amount of surface tension. gasoline has a low surface tension and forms flat drops. another special property of liquids is viscosity. viscosity is a liquids resistance to flow. liquids that are \sticky\ usually have a high viscosity. the particles in these liquids have a strong attraction for each other. for example, honey flows more slowly than water. so the viscosity of honey is greater than that of water. what are the properties of gases? the properties of a gas are different from the properties of other states of matter. a gas has no specific shape or volume. all gases take on the shape of the container they are put in. this is because their particles have little attraction for each other. a gas that you might know about is helium. helium is the gas that is used to fill birthday balloons. when the helium is in the tank, the particles are close to each other. as the helium particles fill a balloon, they spread out. so the amount of space between the helium particles in the balloon increases. many balloons can be filled from one tank of helium because the particles of helium gas in a balloon are far apart. reading check 5. describe what is surface tension? critical thinking 6. apply concepts put the following in order from lowest to highest viscosity: syrup, water, and cream. take a look 7. describe what happens to the space between particles when helium moves from the tank into the balloon?

Explanation:

Answer:

(5) A force that acts on the particles at the surface of a liquid
(6) water, cream, syrup
(7) The amount of space between the helium particles increases
