What happens to kinetic energy of the particles of a substance as the substance changes from a liquid to a gas?

The faster the molecules of a substance are moving, the warmer that substance is, because temperature is really a measurement of the average kinetic energy of the molecules in a substance or object. For a substance to evaporate, or change from a liquid to a gas, it has to become warmer. That means that the kinetic energy of the molecules increases.

∙ 13y agoKinetic is the energy that is contained by matter in motion. Solid... liquid... it matters not.
Do you mean like when 32° water turns into 32° ice? If that's what you mean, that is called the heat of formation (if my 25 year old thermodynamics lessons are still in my brain). It similar, but opposite, to when 212° water boils, and does not get any hotter, but rather just continues to boil until it is all converted to vapor (heat of evaporation). All the additional heat from the stove goes to heat of evaporation. In order to convert a liquid to a solid, it must be cooled to the freezing point, which is where it stays until the change is completed.
What happens to the energy? It must be removed from the substance. It goes to wherever you sink it to.

What happens to the kinetic energy of the particles in the substance during process condensation?
The average kinetic energy of the particles falls.
When the particles in a substance move faster what increases?
Temperature. Temperature is a measure of the average kinetic energy of particles of the substance.
How does increasing the temperature of a substance affect the kinetic energy of its particles?
inc temp, increases the ave. KE of the particles.
How is temperature and kinetic related?
Temperature is a measure of the kinetic energy of the particles of a substance.
Has thermal energy been transfered into or out of a substance if the average kinetic energy changes?
Temperature is a measure of the average KE of the PARTICLES of a substance. So if the temperature changes, ave KE changes, thus thermal energy will have been transferred.

What happens to substance during changes between gas to liquid?
The particles of the substance gain kinetic energy as they absorb heat energy. Eventually there is enough kinetic energy for the particles to escape the liquid phase, forming the gas phase.
What happens to the kinetic energy of the particles in the substance during process condensation?
The average kinetic energy of the particles falls.
The kinetic energy of a substance is the what kinetic energy of its particles?
The kinetic energy of a substance is the average kinetic energy of its particles.
What is the kinetic energy of a substance and the kinetic energy of its particles?
The kinetic energy of a substance is the average kinetic energy of its particles.
How is the kinetic energy of the particles that make up a substance different after it changes?
If you mean by heating it... When you heat a substance, the thermal energy of its particles increases. This means that the particles will move around faster as they have a higher kinetic energy.
What Explain what happens to the average kinetic energy, thermal energy, and temperature of a substance when the particles in the substance slow down.?
The particles in a substance slow down when the average kinetic energy of the particles decreases. As the average kinetic energy decreases, the internal energy decreases, and so the thermal energy decreases. As the thermal energy of the substance decreases, the temperature decreases.
What happens to substance during changed between liquid and gas?
The particles of the substance gain kinetic energy as they absorb heat energy. Eventually there is enough kinetic energy for the particles to escape the liquid phase, forming the gas phase.
When the particles in a substance move faster what increases?
Temperature. Temperature is a measure of the average kinetic energy of particles of the substance.
How is the temperature of a gaseous substance related to the average kinetic energy of the particles in the substance?
if the temperature of the substance is raised then the kinetic energy of the gaseous particles will also increase....
What is the measure of the average kinetic of the particles in a substance and why?
dookie is the measure of the average kinetic energy in a substance
What is a measure of the average kinetic energy in the particles of a substance?
Temperature, which is the average kinetic energy of all the particles that make up a substance. :0temperature
