LESSON 2.

MATTER

It is well known that any matter is composed of large numbers of very small mass particles called molecules.

They are in a state of continuous motion. In a solid they are closely packed and, give to the solid its definite shape. In a liquid, the molecules have a weaker cohesion and travel about with some freedom, so that the liquid takes up the shape of the vessel in which it is contained. In a gas, the molecules are still more mobile and relatively far apart. The cohesive force is small and the gas fills its container and is easily com­pressed or expanded.

When substances are heated the molecules move more in­tensely, and expansion or internal pressure arises.

An atom is the smallest particle of matter and it generally exists only in combination with other atoms.

Atoms consist of three kinds of particles — electrons, pro­tons and neutrons, and the numbers of particles determine the kind of element. An electron has a negative electric charge. A proton is positively charged. A neutron is a chargeless mass.

The neutrons and protons of an atom are linked together to form a compact nucleus, while the electrons travel in orbits round the nucleus like planets round the sun. The simple hydro­gen atom has a single proton as nucleus and a single electron as planet. The atomic weight of an atom is the number of protons and neutrons it contains. The atomic number is the number of protons in the nucleus; normally the number of negative or positive charges is equal, and the atom is electri­cally balanced.
