NGSS-Modified5Physical Sciences5-PS1-1Matter and Its InteractionsDevelop a model to describe that matter is made of particles too small to be seen.
NGSS-Modified5Physical Sciences5-PS1.AStructure and Properties of MatterMatter of any type can be subdivided into particles that are too small to see, but even then the matter still exists and can be detected by other means. A model showing that gases are made from matter particles that are too small to see and are moving freely around in space can explain many observations, including the inflation and shape of a balloon and the effects of air on larger particles or objects.
