the atoms in a liquid can move around freely.
Because the atoms of the substance are able to spread out and move freely.
the atoms are farther apart and move more freely
When atoms gain enough energy to be able to move freely and independently, the matter has changed into the state of a gas. In the gas state, atoms are not fixed in a specific position and can move and interact with other atoms more freely compared to in solid or liquid states.
In a solid the atoms are tightly packed together and vibrate in place, in a liquid the atoms are loosely packed together and can move past each other, and in a gas the atoms are far apart and move freely and collide frequently.

the amount of energy they have. In a solid, atoms are tightly packed and vibrate in place. In a liquid, atoms are closer together but can move past each other. In a gas, atoms are far apart and move freely.
In a liquid, atoms or molecules move freely and randomly. They slide past one another due to weak intermolecular forces, allowing the liquid to flow and take the shape of its container. The movement is faster and more disordered compared to solids, but slower and more confined compared to gases.
False. Atoms do not move freely in all states of matter. In solids, atoms are closely packed and vibrate in place, while in liquids, they can move past one another but are still somewhat restricted. In gases, atoms move more freely and independently, occupying the available space.
Water is not always liquid. It is only liquid between 00C and 1000C. Below that it is solid, above that it is a gas. The temperature determines how fast the atoms and molecules move about. In a solid they are too cold to move about. When they get hotter they move about relatively freely (liquid), and when they really get going, they are as free as the air!
