Develop a model to describe that matter is made of particles too small to be seen.
Clarification statement: Examples of evidence supporting a model could include adding air to expand a basketball, compressing air in a syringe, dissolving sugar in water, and evaporating salt water.
Assessment boundary: Assessment does not include the atomic-scale mechanism of evaporation and condensation or defining the unseen particles.
