What is the arrangement of water molecules in the gaseous liquid and solid?
In a solid state, particles vibrate because there's not a lot of space for them to move in. A solid has a definite shape and volume. In a liquid state, particles flow past one another because there is no definite shape but there's a definite volume. In a gas state, particles move really fast because there's no definite shape or volume.
Does gas have fast moving particles?
yes. gas has the fastest moving particles and a solid has the slowest moving particles and particles in a liquid are moving faster than solid particles but not as fast as gas particles.
Why does a substance change states?
A change of state is accompanied by a change in an energy level, so it can be caused when energy is put into a substance, or taken out. As an example, when changing state from liquid to gas, that means that the individual particles have so much energy (or equivalently, move so fast) that they can escape from the attractive forces of other particles.
As sample of matter is heated it's particles do what?
As the individual atoms are warmed up, they move faster causing the substance to expand slightly. As a substance has energy added to it through heating, its Kinetic Energy becomes greater. Kinetic energy is the energy of Motion - the more the kinetic energy of the atoms of a substance means the faster the speed of motion of these same atoms.
What are the two properties that determine the state of a substance?
gases have no shape,volume water has volume but no shape solids have shape and volume gases have the most intermolecular space solids have least inter molecular space <><><><><> Temperature and pressure.
What is the measurement of how fast particles move in a substance?
It is measured as the thermodynamic temperature - the temp on the Kelvin scale.
What substance has the most fast moving particles?
Photons
What are the two things that the thermal energy depends on?
- How fast the particles are moving - The number of particles in a substance
Is it true that a high temperature has particles that move quickly?
Not precisely. A temperature can't have particles. A substance which is at a high temperature has particles which are moving fast.
What is gass?
Have you definitive shape or volume, has fast moving particles
What happens at the particle level as a given volume of air is warmed?
the particles, as they are heated start to vibrate faster giving the particles of air to heat up. the more heat put into the the volume of air the faster the particles will vibrate. The more they vibrate the more pressure the particles create by their fast vibrations. Because the particles vibrate so fast they will hit the edge of the volume container making so much pressure eventually they will break the container and go free in the air.
What happens to particles in a substance when its heated or cooled?
In a solid, the particles start to vibrate a lot.In a liquid, the particles begin to move around faster and faster.In a gas, the particles move extremely fast through the air.
A temperature is?
A temperature is to us people how hot or cold something is. Actually, it is the measurement of how how much kinetic energy is in a substance (how fast the molecules are moving).
Which change of state has fast moving particles?
Gas has fast moving particles.
4.6cc is how fast in mile per hour?
Impossible to answer ! The measurement cc is a unit of volume - whereas mph is a unit of speed - the two are completely unrelated !
What is the arrangement of water molecules in the gaseous liquid and solid?
In a solid state, particles vibrate because there's not a lot of space for them to move in. A solid has a definite shape and volume. In a liquid state, particles flow past one another because there is no definite shape but there's a definite volume. In a gas state, particles move really fast because there's no definite shape or volume.
Heat makes the particles in matter move how?
Heat is the average kinetic energy of something. When you increase the heat, you make the particles in the substance move faster. It would be more correct to say that particles moving in a liquid (or any substance rather) cause heat. So increasing heat causes particles in a liquid to move faster. Hope that helps.
