The answer depends on what the solid is: ice, a hydrate crystal, or something else.

What are the states of water How does it describe the arrangement of water molecule?
The 3 states of water are liquid, solid, and gas. The molecules bind closest together in the solid state and furthest apart in the gaseous state.
Compare the three states of water in terms of the speed and arrangement of their molecules?
When water is in its gaseous form, the molecules are spread far apart and moving very quickly. In the liquid form, molecules are spread evenly and move at an average speed. In its solid form, the molecules are very close together and move very slowly.
What happens to the arrangement of water molecules as water melts and freezes?
When water freezes the molecules come together and become more orderly. When water melts the molecules loosen apart.
What is a solid compound which contains water molecules in its crystalline structure called?
Hydrate: a solid compound that contains water molecules as a part of the solid crystalline structure
What happens to the molecules of a solid such as a sugar cube when it dissolves water?
The sugar molecules dissipate throughout the water - mixing with the water molecules.
In the solid the molecules are in a what?
They are in a regular arrangement or lattice.
What phase change does the arrangement of water molecules become most orderly?
During fusion, or the formation of a solid, as in liquid water turning to ice.

What is the name given to the arrangement of molecules in a solid?
mostly, they are called crystals
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.
Why are molecules closer when its a solid?
molecules that start closing together turn into solid example: think of water, when molecules are loose the water is liquid but when the molecules are packed together the water turns into ice

How do water molecules in the solid phase compare with water molecules in the gaseous phase?
if you are awesome like casy connor anthony
In which state of matter are the molecules of water bunched together?
Water molecules bunch together in the state of a solid.
