gliding movement
They are in a continuous movement.
First, the molecules in a liquid are held together by molecular bonds.. The particles move somewhere between the state of a solid (very rigid and ordered.. no movement) and a gas (no arrangement, spread out, fast moving).. See that liquid particles move and are only locally bound to one another.. The hotter they are, the faster they move.
Increasing the temperature particles move faster.
brownian movement
water changing to a solid: freezing movement of particles: vibration in fixed positions. arrangement: fixed positions (bonds between every particle). moving closer together water as a liquid: movement of particles: move about (slide past each other) arrangement: close together with no regular arrangement water to gas: boiling movement of particles: free/random movement at high speeds. arrangement: particles move further apart with no bonds between particles.

it is because it is used to to explain the properties of solids,liquids and gasses in terms of arrangement and movement in particles.

From a liquid to a gas, the particles become more spread out and move slower. From a solid to a liquid, the particles also become more spread out and move slower.
the movement of particles increases
The movement of particles in a hard stick of butter are solid. Their not moving. While the movement of particles in a melted sick of butter are liquid. They are moving.
The movement is random, but there is a net movement from regions where there are lots of particles to ones where there are fewer particles.
At its melting points the particles of a substance become looser and can move more freely. There is no order unlike a solids particles, however there isn't complete freedom to move everywhere unlike gases particles.
The physical state of an item depends on the arrangement and movement of its particles. The three main states of matter are solid, liquid, and gas. Solids have particles that are tightly packed and vibrate in place, liquids have particles that are close together but able to move freely, and gases have particles that are spread out and move rapidly in all directions. Changes in temperature and pressure can also affect the physical state of an item.
