No in a solid the molecules are fixed in position while in a liquid they can move around - that is why a liquid is 'liquid'.
Molecule movement is the smallest in a solid. In a solid, the molecules are closely packed and have limited freedom to move and vibrate. In liquids and gases, the molecules have more space and freedom to move, resulting in greater molecular movement.
They do so in all (3) 'states of matter' (gas, liquid, solid) but their freedom in movement is very different, as is the mean distance between molecules or atoms (if you compare for instance liquid or solid with gas). However, all particles are evenly spread when 'in one particular state of matter'.
the actual molecules are not different, it is the structure which differs. Molecules in a solid are set out in tight rows, without any room for movement. they cannot change where they are. Molecules in a liquid have a little more freedom.
In order for molecules in a solid state to change to a liquid state, the substance needs to be heated. An increase in temperature causes more molecular movement (this leaves more space between each molecule) which results in what we see as the physical change from solid to liquid and then eventually liquid to gas.
gliding movement. The particles move faster then that of a solid, but slower than that of a gas.

It becomes a liquid. solid, liquid, and gas are relative terms defining the movement of molecules, solid moves slow, liquid faster, and gas the fastest. molecules move constantly.
the movement of a liquid along the surface of a solid caused by the attraction of molecules of the liquid to the molecules of the solid
Which is NOT true? 1. Molecules in a gas are close together compared to their large molecular size. 2. A solid has a set shape and volume. 3. Molecules in a gas spread out to fill their container. 4. Molecules in a liquid have more freedom of movement than those in a solid. 5. Molecules in a solid are close together.

The molecules in a solid vibrate in place. The molecules of a liquid are moving about.
solid< liquid< gas< plasma solids yield the slowest molecules while plasma's molecules zoom every which way.
All molecules are in constant motion. Molecules of a liquid have more freedom of movement than those in a solid. Molecules in a gas have the greatest degree of motion. Heat, temperature and the motion of molecules are all related. Temperature is a measure of the average kinetic energy of the molecules in a material. Heat is the energy transferred between materials that have different temperatures. Increasing the temperature increases the translational motion of molecules Energy is related to temperature by the relationship: E= kT
