How fast are molecules in the air moving?
Temperature has a big effect on how fast air molecules travel. Air molecules move faster in hot weather and they move slower in cold weather.
When you have a cup of boiling hot water next to a cup with ice cold water how does the movement of the water molecules change in each case?
Equilibrium of temperature. The water is trying to reach the same temperature as the environment it sits in. a cup of hot water has a higher temperature than the room so therefore begins to cool. a cup of cold water has a lower temperature than the room and therefore begins to heat up. both reach equilibrium when at the same temperature as the room
How fast does sound travel in dry air at room temp?
330 at room temperature
Which state will molecules move faster?
Molecules in the gas state move much faster than their liquid or solid states. Depending on the temperature and pressure, molecules can exist in three states: gas, liquid, or solid. At high temperatures and low pressures, the gas state is favored. When the molecule is in the gas state, it actually hits other molecules and bounces in random directions. A molecule moving as a gas is like a weightless baseball hit inside a big empty room in outer space. The baseball bounces everywhere, and it moves very fast. In a gas, every time the molecule hits another molecule, it also bounces like the baseball. In comparison, molecules in their liquid state can move, but they move much slower, because but they do not separate from each other. The movement of a liquid molecule is like you moving in a room packed with people. You can move, but you are always in contact with someone. Even slower are molecules in their solid state. In fact, they do not move much at all. This time imagine that you are in a packed room, but now you are all sitting in connected chairs. You can wiggle your head, arms and legs, but you cannot leave the chair. Since you cannot leave the chair, and because the chairs are stuck together, you can not move your entire body to another place in the room. Using this analogy, molecules in the solid state are the slowest.
What gas is at room temperature and is made of molecules?
Many gases are made of molecules and exist at room temperature. The atmosphere is mainly oxygen and nitrogen, both these have molecules with two atoms. O2 and N2. Then there are small amounts of other gases like carbon dioxide CO2, methane CH4, sulphur dioxide SO2. So there are plenty of molecules.

Do molecules move faster in room temperature water?
room temperature water. the hotter water get the more quickly it moves
What are the differences in the way water molecules move in cold room temperature and in hot water?
Water molecules have more space between each other in cold room temperature than hot water.
Does the heated tennis ball go higher or the room temperature or the frozen one?
The heated, then the room temperature, then the frozen ball. It's the heated because of how fast the molecules are moving. :)
Is iron at room temperature solid liquid or gas?
Iron can be a solid, liquid, or gas because it is an element and elements can become all the forms of matter
What will happen when heat is added to water that is room temp?
The water will get hotter. Its molecules will move faster, and the temperature goes up.
Will sugar dissolve faster at room temp or with ice in a glass of tea?
Much faster at room temperature compared to in ice. Higher the temperature, the more kinetic energy molecules have, the faster they move and the more collisions the sugar molecules have with the water molecules in the tea per second therefore faster dissolving rate.
Why are oxygen and nitrogen gases at room temperature?
The reason why these elements form gases at room temperature is that the diatomic molecules that they both form have relatively little attraction for eachother, and therefore they move independently, which creates a gas.
Why water is in liquid state not in gas state?
Other substances with molecules of a similar state are indeed in a gaseous state, at room temperature. It seems that water is liquid, at room temperature, because of its large electric dipole, which causes molecules to attract each other more than is usual for molecules of that size.Other substances with molecules of a similar state are indeed in a gaseous state, at room temperature.

Does the temperature of a room affect how fast a candle melts?
The room temperature is too low for an effect.
When you put cool water in the glass why the outside vapour appears?
as the air molecules are free to move , when we pour cold water in glass its surface become cooler than the room temperature , thr air molecules stick with the walls of glass and due to low temperature there these air molecules deposit there.
