About this Simulation

This interactive simulation models the kinetic theory of matter by visualising how particles behave in solid, liquid, and gas states. Learners observe molecular motion, inter-particle forces, and energy distribution in real-time, exploring how temperature and pressure influence state changes and material properties.

Learning objectives: Understand how particle arrangement and motion differ across the three states of matter | Relate temperature changes to kinetic energy and observable particle behaviour | Explain phase transitions using molecular-level interactions
