My best guess is that the particles weaken.
My best guess is that the particles weaken.
During melting, particles gain enough energy to overcome the forces holding them in place. This allows the particles to move more freely, transitioning from a solid to a liquid state without changing their chemical composition.
quite simply, bonds. The strength of these bonds depends on the type of element or compound that forms the solid. These 'particles' you refer to are best known as 'atoms' and the atoms that form a solid are held together by these bonds.
Conduction works best in solids because the particles are closely packed together, allowing for efficient transfer of energy through collisions between particles. In liquids and gases, the particles are more spread out, which can impede the transfer of energy through conduction.
In a solid, particles are closely packed together in a regular pattern and vibrate in fixed positions. This results in a fixed volume and shape for the solid.
Clay soil has the best water holding capacity due to its high percentage of fine particles that allow for water retention. Sandy soil, on the other hand, has low water holding capacity as it drains water quickly due to its larger particle size and larger pore spaces in between. Silt soil falls in between clay and sandy soils in terms of water holding capacity.
The negatively charged particles will repel each other due to their like charges. This repulsion is the result of the electrostatic force acting between the two particles.
When particles change from a liquid to a gas they move apart, moving quickly and spreading out. Solids stay close, their vibrations together, liquids are moving/ vibrating but they still remain close. Gas however, the particles are moving/vibrating fast and they separate They don't bond together, they move past one another quickly. That's the best i can explain. I learned it in like grade 10. (hope this helped... or i hope someone else comes along and explains this better)
Sound travels best through solids because the particles in a solid are closer together, allowing for better transmission of vibrations. Liquids and gases are less dense and have more space between particles, making sound travel less efficiently in these mediums.
I would describe it as this: All of the particles are tightly packed together with almost no spaces between them. Their motion is very limited, unlike that of a gas where the particles are spaced further apart and they are free to move around more.
