What happens when you add kinetic energy to a solid?

When you add kinetic energy to a solid the molecules won't move


How does kinetic energy change with each state of matter?

When any substance goes from solid to liquid to gas, the kinetic energy of the molecules increases.Molecules in the gaseous state have the most kinetic energy.Molecules in the solid state have the least kinetic energy.


Do molecules have the lowest average kinetic energy in a plasma?

No. Molecules have the lowest average kinetic energy in a solid. Plasma is the highest average kinetic energy.


When you add heat to a solid does its kinetic energy rise?

Yes the kinetic energy of solid increases resulting in increase of vibration of atoms in their mean positions


How does kinetic energy of solids liquids and gases compare?

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


Which state of matter will have most kinetic energy?

solid


In what state does a fixed amount of water have the least amount of kinetic energy?

Water has the least amount of kinetic energy as a solid.


Explain by kinetic molecular theory why ice is more dense then water vapours?

By looking at the states of matter ( solid ,liquid or gas) we can determine that a giben sample will have how much energy. Molecules in solid have least kinetic energy. Molecules in vapor (gas) have highest kinetic energy. Liquids have moderatee kinetic energy.


Does solid have the highest kinetic energy?

Kinetic energy does not depend upon the phase of matter; it depends upon the amount of matter, and the speed with which it is moving. One pound of matter, whether gas, liquid, or solid, moving at a specific speed, has the same kinetic energy.


Is thermal energy conducted through a solid object as kinetic energy?

yup


Do molecules have least kinetic energy in liquid phase?

If the molecules in question have a solid phase, for example water which goes from liquid to solid, namely ice, then least kinetic energy is the solid phase, with minimum kinetic occurring at 0 Kelvin (absolute zero).


What are the four stages of matter in order from least kinetic energy to most kinetic energy?

Solid, liquid, gas, plasma - in that order.
