Matter is a solid liquid or gas because of the arrangement and motion of its atoms or molecules. is that true or false?

this is true, and one way these molecules are affected is by changes in temperature. these molecules are also affected by pressure. you can literally press water back into ice; the same way you can lower the temperature until it freezes. oh and the space in between these molecules plays a big role as well.

Is a liquid a very structured molecule?
Molecules of all compounds are structured.The liquid as a state of matter is not very structured.
What is the molecule for liquid?
The molecule for liquid is not specific to one molecule, as liquids can be composed of various types of molecules. For example, water (H2O) is a common liquid, but there are many other liquid molecules such as ethanol (C2H5OH), gasoline, and oil. The state of matter being a liquid is determined by the arrangement and movement of the molecules.
The least dense state of matter is?
Gas. Because the molecules/atoms are free moving
What account for solid matter to be definite in shape while liquid and gas to be indefinite in shape?
because of its molecules solid molecules are very close to each other that's why they make definite shape, while liquid and gas molecules are far apart.
What states of matter do their molecules vibrate about their mean position?
liquid state

Molecular arrangement of solid liquid gas and plasma?
Matter is different solid liquid and gas
What state of matter has less energy solid or liquid?
Solid. The molecules are not moving as quickly because of it's state of matter. That's why it is a solid.
What is thee type of matter that makes up the object and the arrangement of the matter in the object?
solid, liquid, and gas
Molecule arrangement of liquid?
The state of matter that has a definite volume but not a definite shape
Is matter made out of solid liquid gass?
Matter is a combination of atoms, often molecules, that are in a solid, liquid, or gas phase.
What account for solid matter to be definite in shape while liquid and gas to be indefinite in shape?
because of its molecules solid molecules are very close to each other that's why they make definite shape, while liquid and gas molecules are far apart.
State of matter in which atoms or molecules can move but remain close?
This state of matter is the liquid.
How does matter turn into a gas?
As matter heats up, it vibrates at a faster rate, and bonds between molecules start to break up, making it a liquid, then as it vibrates faster it turns into a gas because there are no bonds between the molecules.
How does arrangement of atoms in most solids differ from the arrangement of atoms in a liquid?
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.
