The atoms in a solid are arranged in closely packed. Lot of energy is required to break the bond between atoms. Supplied energy to the solid is loose in the form of vibrations and heat. They vibrate back and forth

Which state of matter do the molecules move the slowest?
solid state
How the particles in matter move?
It depends which state of matter you are referring to -- solid, liquid or gas. Solid: molecules vibrate in place Liquid: molecules are moving faster than a solid but slower than a gas. gas: molecules are moving at a high speed hope this helps :)
How would molecules move in matter?
That depends on the state of matter. In a solid, they will simply vibrate back and forth; in a gas, they are free to move around; in a liquid, they are partially free to move around.
Do molecules gain or lose energy from melting?
When matter melts (changes from a solid to a liquid state), its molecules move faster, meaning they are gaining energy.
Do molicules move faster in a solid or in a liquid?
In liquid molecules move faster but in solid the molecules would vibrate about its mean position
What state of matter has molecules that are vibrating?
It is the solid. The molecules in solid dont move much but they do move, just a bit.
Which state of matter do the molecules move the slowest?
solid state
What four properties does matter have?
Matter's property depends on how it's molecules are interacting(if they move,or not).The four properties of matter are solid,liquid,gas,and plasma.A solid matter's molecules don't move apart,yet the other three do.Liquid molecules do move apart ,but not by much.Gas molecules will move apart as far as they can.Plasma takes it even farther,the electrons in it even move apart from the rest of the molecule.
What is the state of matter that has molecules that are close together they cannot move?
the answer to that question is solid
Do molecules of matter don't move in solids?
Molecules vibrate in a solid but they do not move from one place to another. Although these vibrations are small yet they result in a change in the position of molecules. So, we can say that molecules change position in a solid.

Which state of matter has the the slowest moving particles?
Solid
How would molecules move in matter?

A nonsolid state of matter in which the atoms or molecules are free to move past each other as in a gas or liquid?
Matter only comes in three forms; solid, liquid and gas. There is no other form of matter that allows atoms or molecules to move about freely.
Four states of matter?
the four states of matter are a solid, liquid ,gas, and plasma the molecules in a solid are tightly packed together in a liquid they take the shape of its container a gas the molecules move freely and in plasma the molecules attract each other positive and negative
Do molecules gain or lose energy from melting?
When matter melts (changes from a solid to a liquid state), its molecules move faster, meaning they are gaining energy.
What are 5 characteristics of solid matter?
•molecules are tightly packed together •has a definite shape •molecules do not move around I could only think of three, sorry!
