Describe the atomic theory of atoms. How does this help us understand differences in the three states of matter? (4 pts)

The atomic theory of atoms is the scientific theory that all matter is made up of atoms and when grouped together, these atoms can create the food we eat, the air we breathe, and much more!

The atomic theory relates to the states of matter because the state of matter is dependent upon the strength of the bonds between each atom. Solid matter has strong bonds, liquid has weak bonds, there are no bond within gas, and plasma has ionization.
