IGCSE PHYSICS
P5 MATTER AND THERMAL PROPERTIES

Before you start you can look back at 8I Heating and Cooling

If you only remember one thing:

SOLIDS, LIQUIDS AND GASES EXPAND WHEN HEATED BECAUSE THE PARTICLES MOVE FASTER AND OCCUPY MORE SPACE. (PARTICLES DO NOT GET BIGGER!)
This is the fifth of the 15 Physics units:
P1. Motion 
P2. Matter and Forces
P3. Energy, Work and Power
P4. Simple Kinetic Molecular Model of Matter
P5. Matter and Thermal Properties
P6. Transfer of Thermal Energy
P7. Waves
P8. Light
P9. Electromagnetic Spectrum 
P10. Sound 
P11. Magnetism 
P12. Electricity
P13. Electric Circuits
P14. Electromagnetic Effects
P15. Radioactivity
