Do particles move faster in a gas or liquid?

Particles generally move faster in a gas compared to a liquid. In a gas, particles have more energy and move more freely and quickly as they are not as tightly packed as in a liquid. Conversely, in a liquid, particles are closer together and interact more, resulting in slower movement.


What happens to the particles when a liquid becomes a soild?

The particles vibrate more until the particles break away and become more spread out. This is when they become a liquid.


What happends to the particals of a soild as it melts?

The particles in a solid are very tightly packed together and rigid. The particles in a liquid are less tightly packed together. When a solid like lead is heated, the particles spread out and can move more, making a liquid.


How do the particles in a liquid moves?

compared to particles in a solid, the particles in a liquid are more loosely connected and can collide with and move past one another.


Would a gas liquid or solid be most affected by the volume of its container?

Matter can exist in one of three main states: solid, liquid, or gas.Solid matter is composed of tightly packed particles. A solid will retain its shape; the particles are not free to move around.Liquid matter is made of more loosely packed particles. It will take the shape of its container. Particles can move about within a liquid, but they are packed densely enough that volume is maintained.Gaseous matter is composed of particles packed so loosely that it has neither a defined shape nor a defined volume. A gas can be compressed.

Explain how solids are terms in particles?

In a solid, the particles are tightly packed and do not move around much, as opposed to a liquid or gas, in which the particles are more spread out.


Define volatile and viscous?

Viscous means how thick a LIQUID is and how tightly the particles are packed together if the liquid is thick(less runny) it is more viscous if the liquid is thin(more runny) it is less viscous


Which state has the most energy solid liquid or gas?

A solid has the most energy, it is the most tightly packed, then a liquid as the particles have more space, then a gas as the particles are free and there are less of them. Hope this helps. if you go to google images, you will also know what I mean


How are the particles of a liguid different from the particles of a solid?

Liquid particles can nove around more than Solid particles they are in rows and have very strong bonds Liquid particles can nove around more than Solid particles they are in rows and have very strong bonds


What happens to the motion of particles in a solid and liquid and gas?

In a solid the particles are packed tightly together in a more raged formation . in a liquid the particles move passing each other in a gas the particles move freely in the space they have


Define melting and melting processes?

Well, sold particles are tightly packed together with bonds connecting them to each other. They are always vibrating, when they are heated the particles start vibrating a lot more until some of the bonds break and the particles have more space to move. This is when they turn into a liquid.


What happens to particles of a liquid as the liquid boils?

the particles are given more energy.


What happens to the particles when a liquid becomes a soild?

The particles vibrate more until the particles break away and become more spread out. This is when they become a liquid.


Do solids have particles that are packed tightly together and are firmly connected?

Yes, a solid is the most dense of the states of matter, it's particles are tightly packed and difficult to separate. if x is one particle; xxxx x x x x x xxxx x x xxxx x x x x solid liquid gas the solid's particles require more energy to separate than the liquid or gas. Hope this helps


When do the particles move faster in a liquid?

particles move faster in a liquid when there's More added to it


When comparing a solid with a liquid which has particles with more energy?

Liquid
