Atoms bond with each other covalently or ionically to form solids. Covalent bonding includes the sharing of two or more atoms. Ionic bonding transfers the electrons from one atom to another. The electrons are shared as the atoms are trying to fill there valence electron shell becoming a solid. Atoms bond with each other covalently or ionically to form solids.

Do molecules in gases move the fastest?

Yes. Gases move fastest, followed by liquid, while solids are the slowest.


In a soild they are close together?

If by "they" you mean molecules, yes. compared the the other phases of matter, the molecules of solids are closest together. Also they are in an organized pattern and have no room to move, so they merely vibrate around a center point.


Is it stone and metal are compose of molecules?

Yes, ALL materials are composed of molecules, the liquids, the gases, and the solids. [There are a few curious states of matter such as Plasma, in which the molecular bonds are broken]


Do gases and solids contract when cooled?

yes, because the cooling process removes energy from the matter which makes the particles move less and the matter contract


Can the atoms and molecules in matter move faster at higher temperature?

yes atoms and molecules do move faster at higher temperatures, at higher temperatures the atoma and molecules absorb more kinetic energy


Ice is a solid?

Yes. The molecules of ice move very little to not at all, thus making it a solid.


Can heat be conducted through solids?

Yes... the transfer of energy via the vibrating molecules of solids.....


Do solids have their own volume and shape?

Yes because of the atoms and molecules.


In what matter phase are the molecules far apart and move quickly?

In a gas, molecules are relatively far apart and have the energy to move quickly.


Are gasses matter?

Yes. The three types of matter are solids, liquids, and gasses.


Do molecules move to areas where there are more molecules?

Yes.


Do sound waves particles move fast though a solid?

Yes, they do. Sound waves move fastest through solids, less fast through liquids, and slowest through gasses. This is because the molecules of solids are closer together, while those of gasses are further apart, creating more space that the waves must jump to move.
