You can only refer to the Kinetic Energy of the Gas Molecules in this manner, not the entire Volume of the Gas as an Object. To become a Gas Hydrogen must increase its Thermal Energy to the point that it goes from Liquid State to Gaseous State. This increase in Thermal Energy causes and increase in the Motion of the Hydrogen Molecules...increasing their Kinetic Energy.

If cooled to Absolute Zero Temperature their KE goes to Zero and Molecular motion Stops.

Why is kinetic energy more in liquid state?

Than in ??what?? state Kinetic energy is greater in liquid state because the liquid substance is moving. If the kinetic energy was less than in liquid state, the object of the state would become solid.


What is the key defferenc between liquid and gas?

A gas has greater kinetic energy than a liquid.


How does kinetic energy of solids liquids and gases compare?

The kinetic energy is lowest in solids, higher in liquids, and highest in gases.


Is Kinetic energy a solid liquid or gas?

Kinetic energy is the energy of motion. Heat is a form of kinetic energy (the movement of individual atoms or molecules) so the liquid phase contains more kinetic energy than the solid and the gas phase has more kinetic energy than the liquid phase. However, kinetic energy can also be imparted to a mass as a whole in which case if the total mass of the phases was constant the this imparted kinetic energy would be the same for all phases.


What happens when a heated liquid turns into a gas?

Its particles acquire greater kinetic energy.


What happens to the kinetic energy of a substance while undergoing a phase change?

It depends on what phase change they are undergoing. If it were going from a solid to a liquid, then the kinetic energy would be greater. Same as if it were going from a liquid to a gas. However, if it were going from a liquid to a solid (or a gas to a liquid), then the kinetic energy would decrease.


What effect does liquid nitrogen have on molecular kinetic energy?

Temperature is a measure of kinetic energy. Because liquid nitrogen is very cold, a system's kinetic energy will be collisionally transferred to the added liquid nitrogen. Thus, in general, adding liquid nitrogen will decrease a system's kinetic energy. (There are some exceptions where the system has less kinetic energy than the liquid nitrogen, such as liquid helium.)


Does A gas has more kinetic energy than a liquid?

... of the same substance, yes. As, in a gas the molecules are spaced farther apart and move around at greater speeds.


Does kinetic energy increase or decrease when a liquid changes to a gas?

the kinetic energy increases


Does the temperature of a liquid change due to evaporation?

Yes, it decreases. This is because the molecules of the liquid which have higher kinetic energy escape from the liquid, leaving the liquid with molecules having lower kinetic energy. The temperature of any substance is proportional to the kinetic energy of its molecules.


When do liquids gain kinetic energy?

kinetic energy is energy in the form of motion... in other words a liquid must be moving to have any kinetic energy


What causes liquid to freeze kinetic energy?

In terms of energy, a liquid will freeze when enough heat energy is removed from it. This will reduce the average kinetic energy of the particles (atoms or molecules).
