Answer:
B. Particles of matter have spaces between them.
Explanation:
The particle nature model of matter is an model used to explain the properties and nature of matter. The statements of the particle nature model of matter are as follows :
1. Matter is made of small particles of atoms or molecules.
2. The particles of matter have space between them. The spaces between the particles are least in solids as they are closely packed together but are greatest in gases whose particles are far apart from each other.
3. The particles of matter are in constant motion at all times. Solids particles are not free to move due to strong molecular forces between the particles, but are constantly vibrating in their mean positions. Liquid particles free to move due to lesser molecular forces while gas molecules which have negligible intermolecular forces have the greatest ability to move.
4. The particles of matter are attracted to each other by intermolecular forces. These forces are greatest in solids and least in gases.
The correct option is B.
The
Earth is composed of four different layers. Many geologists believe
that as the Earth cooled the heavier, denser materials sank to the
center and the lighter materials rose to the top. Because of this, the
crust is made of the lightest materials (rock- basalts and granites) and
the core consists of heavy metals (nickel and iron).
<span>The crust is the layer that you live on, and it is the most widely studied and understood. The mantle
is much hotter and has the ability to flow. The Outer and Inner Cores
are hotter still with pressures so great that you would be squeezed into
a ball smaller than a marble if you were able to go to the center of
the Earth!!!!!!</span>
