When a liquid or gas is heated, the molecules move faster, bump into each other, and spread apart. Because the molecules are spread apart, they take up more space. They are less dense. The opposite occurs when a liquid or gas is cooled.

What is the crowding together of molecules called?
a compression wave is the crowding of molecules a rarefaction is spread apart molecules
How is jelly a liquid?
The way the classify it as a liquid, is how far apart the molecules are spread. In jelly the molecules must be spread apart and moving more rapidly than a solid structure such as wood.
In boiling water water molecules move apart and escape in the form of water vapor. The process is called what?
The process is just called boiling. At the boiling point, the water molecules spread out to form steam. Water vapour can form at any temperature, and that process is evaporation.

What is the chemical reactions that allow large molecules to be broken apart into smaller molecules by adding water called?
This process is called hydrolysis.

The part of a sound wave where the molecules are spread apart is called?
compression
What are the areas of a sound wave where the molecules in the medium are packed closer together?
Type your answer here... this is called a compression, and when they are spread apart it is called a rarefaction
Where all molecules are spread apart in a longitudinal wave?
rarefraction

What happens to liquids and gases as they are heated?
The molecules in side move or spread apart
What molecules are spread far apart and move very rapidly?
gas
Are particles in a gas or a liquid further apart?
The molecules in a gas are spread further apart than those in a liquid.
Is gas molecules are less widely spread than solid molecule?
Gas molecules are spread apart farther than solid molecules. They also have more energy, making them move faster
Is it true the molecules of a gas are much farther apart than molecules in a liquid?
Yes. The molecules of a gas spread out to fill their entire container.
How are liquids and solids different from each other?
Liquid molecules are spread out. Solid molecules are close together. And gas molecules are far apart.
Part of a sound wave where molecules are spread apart?
rarefaction having low pressure............
