How does the vibration of atoms relate to the phases of matter?
In the solid phase, the atoms are tightly packed in a regular manner. They only vibrate in their own positions. In the liquid phase, the atoms are slightly more disordered and irregularly packed. They can move around freely. In the gaseous phase, the atoms have very large spaces between one another and they can move around at very high speeds.
What are devices that move atomic nuclei at high speeds?
The device is called a Particle Accelerator.
How do you describe the motion of atoms in a solid?
Atoms move more freelythan they would in a soild or a liquid.
On a weather map high wind speeds are indicated where are spaced close together.?
On a weather map, high wind speeds are indicated where thin lines with arrows are spaced close together. This indicates strong winds and the direction in which they will move.
How do the particle move in a gas?
the atoms and molecules are free to move independently, colliding frequently.
Who atoms constantly move?
Democritus
Who said that atoms constantly move?
Democritus was the one who said that atoms constantly move. He was a Greek philosopher and said this around 440 BC.
Who thought atoms constantly move?
Democritus
Who said atoms constantly move.?
Bohr
Properties of the three states of matter?
Solids: Atoms are not free to move about; they vibrate about their fixed positions Liquids: The particles are free to move about by sliding over each other Gases: The particles more about randomly at high speeds
What is the movement of atoms in a liquid during a temperature changes both increases and decreases?
As temperature increases, the atoms will move around more energetically - moving on average faster. Translational speeds increase, rotational speeds of the molecules increase, and the magnitude of vibrations of the atoms about their bonds in molecules increase As temperature decreases, the atoms move around less energetically - moving on average slower. Translational speeds decrease, rotational speeds of the molecules decrease, and the magnitude of vibrations of the atoms about their bonds in molecules decrease
Which scientist said atoms constantly move?
The Greek philosopher Democritus was the first to propose that matter is made up of atoms that constantly move. This was further collaborated by the Scottish botanist Robert Brown, who formulated the famous Brownian Motion.

As heat is added to a solid substance the atoms do what and move apart?
The higher the temperatures, the faster the atoms move. If the temperatures are high enough, the atoms may move apart changing the state of the object.
How far apart are the planets?
It varies. The planets move in their orbits at different distances from the sun and at vaying speeds. The distances between them is constantly changing.
