Answer:
  The characteristics of particles of matter are
(i) Particles of matter have spaces between them.
(ii) Particles of matter are continuously moving.
(iii) Particles of matter attract each other.
(iv) Kinetic energy of particles increases with increase in temperature.

    1. Physical Nature of a Matter:
      • Matter is made up of Particles: All matters are made up of billions of particles. (Activity: Salt is added to water.)
      • Matter is very tiny: All kinds of matter have particles in it which are very tiny but it found large amounts. (Activity: Potassium Permanganate is added to water.)
      Characteristics of particles of Matter:
      • Particles of Matter have space in them: All types of matter have space in them. Solid<Liquid<Gas. (Activity: Potassium Permanganate and Salt.)
      m3 is the SI unit of volume. 1ml = 1 cm3
      • Particles of Matter are continuously moving: Particles is air move faster which increases the KE which increases the diffusion.. (Activity: Incense Stick.) Dr. Robert Brown observed random motion in air and named it as Brownian motion. The Particles move freely due to continuous movement of particles in air.
      • Particles of matter attract each other: Particles of a same kind of matter attract each other. (Activity: when two droplets of water are kept closer they tend to get attracted.)
      • Kinetic Energy of Matter increases with the increase in temperature: When temperature increases the KE also increases with the increase in temperature

  2. "Particles of matter have spqce between them."
    It can be true gor gases or liquids but how can it be true for solids as molecules of solids don't have space between them

    1. They have space in between them but there is very less space

    1. Take a glass fill half with the water mark the level dissolve some sugar with the help of spoon.
      Your observation is no chage in water level the sugar dissolved in water the sugar particles get into the spaces between paeticles of water.
