The molecules in a liquid are spread out more than that of a solid. This allows the molecules to move freely in between the other molecules. All molecules move. They just move quicker in liquids because they have more space to go.
Imagine this -
A solid - A room with lots of people in, they all want to move somewhere but they can't because the room is too small and there's too many people in the room.
A liquid - A room with lots of people in, the room is bigger and everybody has lots of space to move around.
Understand??

∙ 10y agoLiquids move due to gravity and/or heat.
If you were to place a liquid on a perfectly level surface with an even field of gravity under it, the liquid would not roll or spill due to gravety. But it would still be in constant motion due to the heat energy in the molecules of the liquid. And this heat energy would cause the liquid to "jitter" slightly.

How do the particles move in liquids?
The particles in liquid move freely.
What are the major difference between a gas and solids or liquids?
solids - tightly packed and unable to move liquids- tightly packed but able move gases- spread out and able to move
What Name a property of liquids that they do not share with solids?
Liquids can move and can change places while the solids are tightly packed with each other and cannot move or change places.
Why is gas denser than liquids and solids?
Gas isn't denser than liquids and solids. It's the other way around. And THIS is because the atoms in liquids and solids are closer together and there is less space to move around. In solid objects, the atoms are so close and compacted they don't move. in liquids, the atoms are a little bit farther apart. in gases, they are very spread out, making the amount of atoms LESS dense than the solids.
How can temperature change matter?
As a very basic answer, the energy from the heat causes the atoms to move. As they move faster and faster, they spread apart further and further, causing solids to become liquids and liquids to become gasses. In the same sense, as matter cools, the atoms slow down and condense back into liquids and solids.
Why are liquids used in hydraulics instead of gasses?
liquids are easier to move.
How do the particles move in liquids?
The particles in liquid move freely.
When molecules in liquids and gases are heated they?
When molecules in liquids and gases are heated they move faster
What are the major difference between a gas and solids or liquids?
solids - tightly packed and unable to move liquids- tightly packed but able move gases- spread out and able to move
What Can't be compressed much but can move about?
liquids
Is molecule movement greater in liquids or gases?
molecules move more in gasses gasses>liquids>solids
Can molecules of liquids move from place to place?
yes
What Name a property of liquids that they do not share with solids?
Liquids can move and can change places while the solids are tightly packed with each other and cannot move or change places.
Why is the gravitational pull on liquids more noticeable than pull on solids?
Liquids are easier to move around more.
Why is kinetic energy of liquids more than solids?
The kinetic energy in liquids is greater than that in solids because the molecules in solids are more closely packed together than in liquids such that liquids can freely move about within the containing vessel.
How do lipids move through the body so they can be digested and absorbed?
In order for lipids to move through the bloodstream they must combine with proteins to form lipoproteins. liquids are spelt liquids not lipids Lipids is correct. The question is not liquids. Also, it is spelled not spelt!
Does heat move faster through solids or liquids and gasses?
no
