Atoms move more freelythan they would in a soild or a liquid.
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.
Three states of matter. Solid, liquid and gaseous. Of course there is a fourth state called ionic state of matter. In solid atoms or molecules are well packed and they form mostly crystal structure. In liquid, atoms or molecules or ions will be in random motion. In gas, the motion will be severe and the attraction between atoms or molecules or ions will be almost negligibly small. So when liquid is changed into solid the free roaming atoms or molecules will be arrested and they are bound to form lattice and start to have lattice vibrations.
The more energy removed, the slower the motion of the atoms and molecules.
Molecules made up of different elements (different atoms) are called compounds.
Atoms move more freelythan they would in a soild or a liquid.
Gases and liquids are called fluids.Due to the kinetic energy of the atoms/molecules of the fluids they vibrate hence result in a contant mixing or motion of the molecules. Experiments which prove the motion-Brownian motion,Smoke cell

Atoms and molecules are constantly in motion
Atoms and molecules.
Atoms and molecules are always in motion
In a liquid the whole atoms moves from one position to another. In a solid the atom vibrates but does not change its location.
Solid, liquid, and gas states of matter are composed of neutral atoms or molecules. Plasma is the state of matter composed of highly ionized atoms and free electrons.
The arrangement of atoms in solids are different from those in liquids in that they are unable to move from their location in the solid, where they can move in the liquid. A solid's atoms are vibrating very rapidly, but the molecules are all locked into place, whereas in a liquid the molecules are free to move around. Also in general the atoms of a solid are closer together than those of a liquid with the exception of water, whose solid form is less dense.
