How does kinetic energy relate to the heating of water from a solid to a gas?

The motion of the atoms/molecules means they have kinetic energy. When you heat something, that is how the heat is stored. If the motion gets too big, the atoms/molecules no longer stick together and you get a liquid, ultimately a vapour or gas.

Why the inter-particle space increases on heating a solid at its melting point?
when we heat a substance its kinetic energy increases and due to this kinetic energy the force of attraction decreases and can no longer hold the particles together.
What happens when you add kinetic energy to a solid?
When you add kinetic energy to a solid the molecules won't move
How can you turn anyting into a liquid gas or solid?
Most solids (all?) can be turned into a gaseous phase by heating.
When you add heat to a solid does its kinetic energy rise?
Yes the kinetic energy of solid increases resulting in increase of vibration of atoms in their mean positions
How does kinetic energy of solids liquids and gases compare?
The kinetic energy is lowest in solids, higher in liquids, and highest in gases.

How does kinetic energy change with each state of matter?
When any substance goes from solid to liquid to gas, the kinetic energy of the molecules increases.Molecules in the gaseous state have the most kinetic energy.Molecules in the solid state have the least kinetic energy.
Do molecules have the lowest average kinetic energy in a plasma?
No. Molecules have the lowest average kinetic energy in a solid. Plasma is the highest average kinetic energy.

How does kinetic energy of solids liquids and gases compare?

Which state of matter will have most kinetic energy?
solid
In what state does a fixed amount of water have the least amount of kinetic energy?
Water has the least amount of kinetic energy as a solid.
Explain by kinetic molecular theory why ice is more dense then water vapours?
By looking at the states of matter ( solid ,liquid or gas) we can determine that a giben sample will have how much energy. Molecules in solid have least kinetic energy. Molecules in vapor (gas) have highest kinetic energy. Liquids have moderatee kinetic energy.
Does solid have the highest kinetic energy?
Kinetic energy does not depend upon the phase of matter; it depends upon the amount of matter, and the speed with which it is moving. One pound of matter, whether gas, liquid, or solid, moving at a specific speed, has the same kinetic energy.
Is thermal energy conducted through a solid object as kinetic energy?
yup
