Molecules only vibrate in solids. so in solids, they vibrate most when they are expreinecing the latent heat of meltng, or when they are just about to melt.

Do water molecules move the most when they are a gas?
Yes, as all molecules do when the temperature is raised, they vibrate more violently.
What will happen to the molecules when it freezes?
When a molecule freezes, the kinetic energy of that molecule decreases, and the molecules do not move as fast. It is chemically unaltered, but on the phase has changed, making it a physical change.
Does sound waves make air molecules vibrate?
vibrations make air molecules move
Does Increased temperature causes a molecule to vibrate?
Yes. The molecule vibrate about its equilibrium position. If the thermal energy is high enough the molecule can break free from intermolecular bonds leading to changes i physical phase (solid-->liquid-->gas)
What states of matter do their molecules vibrate about their mean position?
liquid state
Do water molecules move the most when they are a gas?
Yes, as all molecules do when the temperature is raised, they vibrate more violently.
Molecules can vibrate but do not?
physically move
In a transverse wave that travels through a medium the molecules of the medium vibrate in which direction?
The molecules vibrate perpendicular to the direction of propagation or motion.
What object vibrate?
Atoms or molecules when they are heated.
What state is the matter in when all molecules are just vibrating around?
All forms except a Bose-Einstein condensate, which only occurs at absolute zero.
What phase of matter contains molecules that have the most amount of energy?
Plasma, then gases.
Which phase has the least molecular energy?
At a solid state molecules/atoms don't vibrate a lot and don't vibrate at all at absolute 0 which is around -370oC... pretty cold.Sorry if this isn't what you meant.Your sincerely smash002Solid State is the lowest energy level because they have the lowest kinetic energy
What causes molecules energy that causes them to vibrate?
Heat!
What is heating in chemistry?
In chemistry, heat is the measurement of how fast molecules vibrate back and fourth as they travel through space and time. In other word, the faster the molecules vibrate, the hotter the object gets. The slower the molecules vibrate, the cooler the object gets.
What will happen to the molecules when it freezes?
When a molecule freezes, the kinetic energy of that molecule decreases, and the molecules do not move as fast. It is chemically unaltered, but on the phase has changed, making it a physical change.
What happens to the materials when cooled?
If they get cold enough, they may change their phase; mainly, from gas to liquid, or from liquid to solid. Also, in most cases materials tend to use up less volume when they are cooled. Other properties also change, such as electrical resistance - one interesting case is superconductivity, where certain materials suddenly have ZERO RESISTANCE below a certain temperature.
Does molecules always have a movement in solid sustances?
The molecules only vibrate about their fixed positions in solids.
