random -- the particles go about in a random fashion in a liquid -- cannot predict which direction a molecule of the liquid will hit the particle in the next period of time of significance (seconds or minutes).

Which statement is true regarding the motion of liquid water molecules and ice molecules?

Liquid water molecules exhibit a greater amount of motion than ice molecules.


Is it true that particles can only evaporate from a liquid at temperatures above liquids boiling point?

It is not true; evaporation occur at the surface of a liquid and the temperature is under the boiling point.

True or flase particles in liquid move around just freely as particles in a solid?

Particles in a solid move around very little depending on the material in question however most liquids can move around very freely. Therefore the answer is True.


Does the Brownian motion prevent colloid particles from settling out a solution?

Yes, it was first observed by Robert Brown in 1827, and it is random movement of particles suspended in a fluid or gas.
