Here are some examples from her book: Then as Brent Bernard gladly gazed through the glistening glass, he gasped, "Gee, Great Aunt Nellie, why aren't any golden goldfinches going to the goodies?" "Oh," said Aunt Nellie, "They thrive on thistle and I thoroughly thought that I threw the thistle out there."

No, alliteration refers to the repetition of initial consonant sounds in close proximity but does not require them to be directly next to each other. Alliteration can occur in consecutive words or within a sentence or phrase to create a rhythmic effect.

No, alliteration does not have to rhyme. Even though it requires words to begin with the same letter, the words do not have even to be completely consecutive, e.g :

"Ben's banana broke the bed " is still alliteration even though there is a "the" in there.

Which state of matter has molecules vibrating next to each other?

All substances always vibrate and shake next to each other: it's how we perceive temperature. I don't think I quite understand this question. But this may help: If a substance is in solid form, it is the most compact. The molecules are vibrating next to each other very closely. If a substance is in liquid form, it is somewhat compact. Molecules are vibrating next to each other, but not as closely. If a substance is in a gaseous form, it is spread out and crazy: and like every other state of matter, the molecules are vibrating next to each other.

What do you call this use of letters in this sentence - a multitude a million a mischief?

The phrase "a multitude, a million, a mischief" that might appear in a sentence, or perhaps show up in a poem or other creative work, makes explicit use of the literary device of alliteration. Alliteration is the combination of words that have similar sounds, whether at their start, middle, or end. In this case, the "m" in each word is being used alliteratively. The phrase is also an example of parallelism, with three nouns being placed next to each other with an indefinite article attached to each.
