Key Stage 2

Meaning

Liquid is a state of matter that can be poured but cannot be squashed into a smaller space.

About Liquids

Liquids are a state of matter that:

  • Can be poured and will flow.
  • Cannot hold their shape
  • Fit the shape of the container.
LiquidSquash.png
Liquids cannot be squashed into a smaller size. You can change their shape, but their size stays the same.

Examples of liquid materials:

  • Water
  • Oil

Key Stage 3

Meaning

Liquid is a State of Matter where the particles are in a random arrangement touching but can slide past each other.

About Liquids

ParticleModelLiquidPour.png
  • A liquid can be poured and will flow because the particles can slide past each other.
  • Liquids cannot hold their shape because the particles can slide past each other.
  • Liquids fit the shape of the container because the particles can slide past each other.
ParticleModelLiquidSquash.png
Liquids cannot be squashed into a smaller size because the particles are already touching so they can't get any closer together.

Particles can slide past each other. Liquids can be poured.
Liquids fit the shape of their container.
Convection happens in solids.
Particles and close together. Liquids cannot be compressed.
Sound passes through liquids faster than gases.
Thermal Conduction happens in liquids but not as well as in solids.
