How are liquid water and water vapor the same?
The molecule (chemical formula) is the same - H2O.
Are the particles in a liquid all the same?
If you mean the smallest particle of water that has the properties of water, then yes, water particles are molecules.
Is water the same thing as gas?
Yes
What kind of molecule is a liquid?
A liquid has the same molecules as a solid, plasma, or gas. The only difference is how close together they are, or, in other words, the desity.
Are the volumes of water and ice the same?
The volume of a 100 milliliters of liquid water would be less if it were frozen. Water as ice (i.e. solid), is less dense than water as a liquid. The water would have the same mass whether solid or liquid, but its molecules occupy more space as a solid than they do as a liquid. This is a very unusual natural phenomenon, which is good for us or any frozen bodies of water would have all the life in it crushed by sinking ice!
How are liquid water and water vapor the same?
The molecule (chemical formula) is the same - H2O.
What is water that has evaporated in to gas?
Solid, liquid or gas water remain the same molecule - H2O.
Is it possible for the same water molecule to be in a liquid a vapor and an ice crystal form while going through the phases of the water cycle?
no
Molecules of a liquid to a molecule of water vapor?
It's particles spreadf apart.
Can water be in all three phases at the same time?
Yes, it is possible to have steam, liquid water, and ice exist in the same space, but not a molecule of water can only be in one of the three phases.
H2O is water but H2 is gas why?
Weather a thing is solid, liquid or gas depends upon the force of the bonds between the molecules, and that depends one temperature and pressure, as well as the particular molecule. In a solid force between molecules is greater as then the forces between molecules of the same material as a liquid, and in a liquid is greater than in a gas. So in the environments most often found on the surface of the earth, hydrogen as a molecule consisting of two hydrogen atoms is always a gas, but water, consisting of two hydrogen atoms and one oxygen atom, can be solid (ice), liquid (water) or gas (water vapor), depending on the temperature and pressure. when you boil water, you turn the liquid into a gas. When you freeze water, you turn the liquid into a solid.
Are the particles in a liquid all the same?
If you mean the smallest particle of water that has the properties of water, then yes, water particles are molecules.
Can a molecule of an element be same as its atom?
yes because the atoms of two gases, hydrogen and oxygen, can combine together to form water, which is a liquid............
In steam are the forces between molecules the same as the forces between the molecules in water?
No, they are not. The forces between molecules in steam are not as strong as those present in liquid water.
What is the size of a steam molecule?
It's exactly the same size as a water molecule or an ice molecule.
Is water the same thing as gas?
Yes
Is liquid oxygen heavier than water?
A thing's heaviness is a measure of gravity's effect on its mass. Molecule for molecule, H2O (water) is heavier than O2 (oxygen); however, you are comparing two different molecules at two different pressures and densities. Oxygen, while lighter than water (molecule for molecule) at normal pressures, is much heavier when compressed to the point of condensation. Liquid oxygen has a weight of 1.141 g/ml, whereas water's weight is 1 g/ml. They are very close to the same weight, but liquid oxygen is almost 15% heavier.
