Yes they can. In fact, the particle theory claims that all particles move and have space between themselves. For example, take gas. Gas has moving particles that have A LOT of space between them. They can easily flow over one another particle.

Why is a liquid able to flow?
a liquid is able to flow because its freely moving particles allow liquid to flow from place to place
What state of matter has particles that can flow past each other?
All but solid.
Flows freely but particles still attract?
Gas particles flow freely but are still attracted to each other. This is because the particles are very far apart.
What is viscosity means in terms of the particle theory?
Viscosity is a measure of how easily particles flow over, around and about each other. The greater their tendency to flow, the higher the viscosity of the substance.
In particle theory why do fluids flow?
I may be wrong, but i am trying to help. In the particle theory fluids flow because the particle theory states that All matter is composed of particles Particles are in constant motion All articles are attracted to one another Particles move faster as they gain energy So, fluids have particles and depending on how much particles the fluid contains will determine how fast or slow it flows. A fluid will flow faster if the partcles are rubbing against each other and attract to eachother. if they are always moving and trying to do this the subsance will gain energy and flow faster. The opposite if something flows slower. is that an okay answer? hope it is:)
How does a gas and liquid flow?
Gases and fluids are all considered fluids which mean they are able to flow. This is because their particles are able to slide into each other. Solids, though some may seem to flow ( salt, sand ) are not able to because their particles are extreamly close together there for they are not able to slide into each other.
Why is a liquid able to flow?
a liquid is able to flow because its freely moving particles allow liquid to flow from place to place
Can particles always flow past each other?
no
What can particles in a gas do?
They can seperate and they can also "flow"
What state of matter has particles that can flow past each other?
All but solid.
What happens to particles when they flow?
nothing happens but the particles seperate They undergo fluid dynamic turbulence, moving with respect to each other.
Flows freely but particles still attract?
Gas particles flow freely but are still attracted to each other. This is because the particles are very far apart.
What is a liquids resistance to flow and increases when particles are more strongly attracted to each other.?
Viscosity
What is a liquid's resistence to flow and increases when particles are more strongly attracted to each other?
Viscosity
How are the paricles in a liquid?
Particles in a liquid have only a small amount of space between each other. They have more energy then solid particles but less energy than gas particles. Particles in liquid roll over each other this is what causes water to flow.
How do particles in a liquid make it possible to pour liquid into a glass?
Particles in a liquid move past each other, allowing the liquid to flow smoothly. When you tilt a container to pour a liquid, the particles are able to rearrange and flow into the glass due to their ability to move and adapt to the new shape. This allows the liquid to flow and fill the glass evenly.
Why is a liquid able flow?
a liquid is able to flow because its freely moving particles allow liquid to flow from place to place
