The actual atom doesn't change but as the state changes from liquid to gasthe distance between the atoms increases and therefore they move around more freely.

What happens the atoms when a substance change state from a liquid to gas?

Vaporization is what happens when a liquid is changed to a gas. When a gas is changed to a liquid it is called condensation.

At the Point at which it cools enough to where it's atoms slow down to a liquid speed. The temperature varies depending on element.


Is it true or false that atoms in a gas move more rapidly than atoms in a liquid or a solid do?

it is true atoms in a gas move faster than a liquid and atoms in a liquid move faster than atoms in a solid


What happen to atom when substances goes from solid to liquid?

The atoms in solids are closer together than liquids. When an atom is in a gas state, the atoms are even farther apart.


What change occurs when a substance changes phase?

The atoms movement is either more free (liquid to gas) or more restricted (liquid to solid)


What you call the change from gas to liquid?

The change from a liquid to a gas is evaporation.


What has to happen in order for a gas to become a liquid in terms of energy?

Energy must be released-- A gas has a high amount of energy with it's atoms speeding around inside of it, a liquid has less energy, and a solid has the least. energy.


To change a gas to a liquid?

* To change a gas into a liquid you need to evaporate the gas by heating it


Change of a liquid to a gas?

The change of a liquid to a gas is Vaporization. Not to be confused with "Evaporation".


Is liquid nitrogen used in refrigerators for cooling?

No. Refrigerators use a substance called Freon that can readily change from liquid to gas to liquid, moving heat from inside the fridge to the outside. Liquid nitrogen is FAR too cold, and requires too much energy to make the change from gas to liquid.Yes, liquid nitrogen is used in refrigerators. Nitrogen is a diatomic gas. The two nitrogen atoms are bond with a triple bond.
