Pressure:

On increasing pressure:

i. On increasing pressure, particles of matter come closer.

ii. If pressure is increasingly applied on a gas, particles of the gas come more closer and a stage is reached when gas may change into liquid. 

iii. If pressure is increasingly applied on a liquid, it will change into liquid. 

On reducing pressure: 

i. On reducing pressure, particles of matter expand. 

ii. If reducing pressure is applied on a liquid, it will change into gas. 

iii. If reducing pressure is applied on a solid, it will change into liquid. 

Temperature: 

On increasing temperature: 

i. The kinetic energy of the particles increases. 

ii. Due to the increase in kinetic energy, the particles start vibrating with greater speed. 

iii. As a result, the particles leave their fixed positions and start moving freely. 

iv. If temperature is increasingly applied on solid, it will change into liquid state. 

On decreasing temperature: 

i. On decreasing the temperature of any state, the particles come closer: 

ii. If we apply reducing temperature on gas, it will change into liquid. 

iii. If we apply reducing temperature on liquid, it will change into solid.
