intermolecular attractions
The key difference between a liquid and a gas is their molecular arrangement. In a liquid, the molecules are loosely packed and have some degree of attraction between them, allowing the liquid to maintain a fixed volume but take the shape of its container. In a gas, the molecules are far apart and have very weak interactions, leading to the gas expanding to fill its entire container.
A gas has greater kinetic energy than a liquid.
Condensation is where a vapour (gas) is cooled, and droplets of liquid form. Vapourisation is where a liquid is heated, and the liquid turns into vapour (gas).
The are a couple of differences: First, the particles in a gas are more loosely packed than in a liquid. Second, a liquid has no definite shape but definite volume; a gas has no definite volume and no definite shape.
KEY: - to make into = this is what you do solid - liquid = melting solid - gas/gas - solid = sublimation liquid - solid = freezing liquid - gas = evaporation gas - liquid = condensation They all involve heating up or cooling down the state. Hope this helps(:
Ice is a solid, water is a liquid, and oxygen is a gas in the air we breath.
a solid has definite volume and shape, a liquid has definite volume but no shape. a gas has nor volume nor shape
Gas is compressible and will expand to fill any container it is put in. Liquid is not compressible and will maintain a fixed volume regardless of the container it is in.
