For instance - ice is water (H2O) in it's solid state. Each molecule lacks the energy needed to shake itself free from the tightly bonded solid structure.
We add energy, in the form of heat. Now each molecule can break away from the rigid structure of a solid and move around a bit more. It is a liquid. But it's still a liquid made up of molecules of H2O.
Bung in a bit more energy and each molecule of H2O now has enough energy to completely break away from other molecules of water. It's a gas. But it is still a molecule of water. All that that heat has done is to provide enough energy to break the weak bonds between individual molecules. The molecules remain the same, H2O.
The break the strong bonds between the hydrogen and the oxygen would take WAY more energy!

What are the molecules that react with one another called?
Molecules that react with one another are called reactants.
Molecules that react with one another are called?
reactants
What is a group of molecules that are mixed in a completely even distribution?
If the group of molecules do not react with one another, this is would be a solution, also known as a homogeneous mixture.
When water molecules stick to the molecules of other substance the molecules are displaying?
Adhesion is the ability of water molecules to stick to other molecules. Cohesion is the ability of water molecules sticking to one another.
What is the inward force among the molecules of a liquid?
The molecules attract one another, via electric forces.
Can molecules convert to one state to another?
yeah duck
Which state of matter allows molecules to move past one another but not fly everywhere?
The liquid state.
What state of matter has particles that break away completely from one another?
A gas has molecules that completely break away from one another.
What happens to molecules when they change from one state of matter to another?
the denseness of the molecules change(compact=solid, really far=gas, in the middle=liquid)
Do liquid molecules have a strong attraction to one another?
no, because liquid molecules spread from one another
What are the molecules that react with one another called?
Molecules that react with one another are called reactants.
Energy is transfered when molecules bump into one another in what?
energy is transferred when molecules bump into one another in
How do one state change from one to another?
A factor which is responsible to increase or decrease the binding forces among the atoms ,ions or molecules is also responsible for change of state as Heat, pressure or force.
Before two molecules can react chemists envision that the molecules must first collide with one another Is collision among molecules the only consideration for the molecules to react with each other?
Molecules must consider temperature and concentration when considering to react with one another.
What are Sugar molecules called that can combine with one another to form large molecules?
Crystal
Genetic information is contained in protein molecules and is passed from one parent to another?
genetic information is contained in protein molecules and is passed from one parent to another.
Is more energy used to melt ice or freeze water?
The energy required is the same. It is the energy required to rearrange the molecules from one state to another.
