Is gas a type of energy due to movement of molecules?
Yes. It is because the molecules in matter are constantly moving.
Which phase of matter has particles that are moving rapidly and random in addition to being more spaced out than in the other three phases of matter?
plasma
The least dense state of matter is?
Gas. Because the molecules/atoms are free moving
Water in its gaseous state is made up of what?
Water is made of water molecules whatever state it is in. In the gas phase the molecules are far apart and moving rapidly.
Which best describes a kinetic theory?
atoms and molecules are always moving
What is the name of a substance that measures of how rapidly its individual molecules are moving?
Temperature
What happens to water molecules as ice melts?
the molecules absorb heat and start moving rapidly changing from solid to liquid
What physical change is happening when the molecules of ice are moving from a fixed position?
It's Melting, the molecules are moving therefore we have a liquid.
What is kinetic theory matter?
Atoms+molecules moving around.
The kenetic theory of matter states that atoms and molecules are?
Always moving.
Is gas a type of energy due to movement of molecules?
Yes. It is because the molecules in matter are constantly moving.
Which state of matter is characterized by having molecules far apart and moving randomly?
The state of matter in which molecules are generally far apart and moving randomly is known as the gaseous state. Steam is an example of a gas.
How the particles in matter move?
It depends which state of matter you are referring to -- solid, liquid or gas. Solid: molecules vibrate in place Liquid: molecules are moving faster than a solid but slower than a gas. gas: molecules are moving at a high speed hope this helps :)
Matter tends to exist in what energy state?
Matter tends to exist in the lowest energy state. Atoms and molecules are constantly moving. When they are at a high energy state they are moving past each other and not interacting. This causes the matter to be unstable. When atoms and molecules are moving slowly, they interact more with each other and this makes the matter more stable.
What is the relationship between kinetic energy of molecules and their physical state?
The relationship between kinetic energy of molecules and their physical state is simple. The higher the kinetic energy the faster the molecules move. The fastest moving molecules are gaseous and the slowest moving molecules are solids.
Which phase of matter has particles that are moving rapidly and random in addition to being more spaced out than in the other three phases of matter?
plasma
What transfer of thermal energy?
Heat being transferred from one thing to another. The rapidly moving molecules cause slower moving molecules to speed up. Running warm water over your cold hands would be an example.
