the actual molecules are not different, it is the structure which differs. Molecules in a solid are set out in tight rows, without any room for movement. they cannot change where they are. Molecules in a liquid have a little more freedom.
Liquid atoms are further apart and move more freely.
Of course not. Ice, water, and steam all have exactly
the same molecules, made up of the same atoms.
solids molecules are closely compacted and liquids molecules are spread apart. Both solids and liquids molecules are always moving.
in solids the molecules are rigid, hard to move, stuck together in liquids they are close together but can still move in gasses theyre far apart with alot of space between molecules, they can move very freely
Liquids have smaller spaces between the molecules than a gas, and Solids have smaller spaces than liquids.
The distinction between states (that is solids, liquids and gases) is based on differences in molecular interelationships
Solids change to liquids when they are heated and the bonds between the molecules are weaked so the molecules can move around more freely
solids molecules are closely compacted and liquids molecules are spread apart. Both solids and liquids molecules are always moving.
There are a few differences between liquids and solids. Two of these differences are that a solid is solid at room temperature, while a liquid remains fluid. A liquid will fill the shape of whatever container it rests in, while a solid maintains its shape.
A Solid has a mass and takes up space where liquids have mass but do not stay in shape.
solid is a state in which molecules are closely packed than liquids and gases. the inter molecular distance between the molecules of solids are less or negligible.thats why the solids are not compressible
Less bonding between the molecules.
One of the differences that determines different states of matter from one another is the closeness of the molecules that make up the substance. Liquids are closer than gasses but solids are closer than liquids.
When solids soak liquids up, the molecules of the liquid become entrapped in between the particles of the solid . A good example is how bread gets wet.
Molecules - They are more tightly packed in solids than liquids and gases
They are all forms of matter. They are identified by the inter-molecular spaces between their molecules.
Liquids can fill the shape of an object, and Solids have a defiant shape. Easy one: Liquids are measured in volume's, and Solids are measured in Grams. THE MORE YOU KNOW.
in solids the molecules are rigid, hard to move, stuck together in liquids they are close together but can still move in gasses theyre far apart with alot of space between molecules, they can move very freely
The vapour pressure of solids are far less than those of liquid because solids have fixed arrangement of molecules and between atom of solids their is strong intermolecular forces that held the molecules in place and the molecules of liquid have less intermolecular forces as compared to solids.
