Does a liquid become a gas when its particles have absorbed enough energy to escape the surface?
yes
Why does a substance change states?
A change of state is accompanied by a change in an energy level, so it can be caused when energy is put into a substance, or taken out. As an example, when changing state from liquid to gas, that means that the individual particles have so much energy (or equivalently, move so fast) that they can escape from the attractive forces of other particles.
How can a liquid expand without changing state?
A liquid can expand when thermal energy is absorbed which is known as thermal expansion, but the thermal energy is not enough to change the liquid's state. When there is enough thermal energy, the liquid may change to a gas if the particles move fast enough to escape the liquid or it may change to a solid if the thermal energy is released from the matter.
How would you describe the arrangement of particles as heat energy and temperature increase?
When you add energy to a substance in the form of heat, the energy is used to increase the motion of its particles. The more heat energy you add, the higher the temperature of the substance is, and the more the particles move around (vibrate, rotate, translate). In a solid, the particles have a relatively low amount of stored energy, and are arranged pretty close together in some kind of ordered fashion. As you add more heat and the temperature increases, the particles vibrate in place more and more, transferring this energy to one another as the collide. At some point, you may add enough energy so that the particles move enough to escape the forces keeping them together (mainly attractive forces between the particles). Escaped particles will then likely form a liquid, able to move around much more freely. Think ice melting into liquid water. These liquid particles can move around and rotate, bumping into one another. They are still fairly tightly packed, and the density of the substance is still quite high. If you keep adding heat and increasing the temperature of the liquid, the particles may have enough energy to move so fast that they can overcome the atmospheric pressure and change into a gas. Think liquid water boiling into water vapour (steam). These gas particles are now fairly far apart from one another (meaning a lower density substance), and move very quickly around in space. Their motion is pretty random, and it is these many random collisions that exerts pressure on surrounding surfaces. When you blow up a balloon, for example, it is the air particles constantly bumping into the inside of the balloon that keep it inflated.
Why does a gas vessel fill completely?
Because gas molecules have enough kinetic energy to overcome the attractive forces between the molecules. The gas molecules are traveling in all sorts of directions, so they naturally will fill a container. In essence if the container isn't closed gas particles that find their direction to be towards the hole will then escape. They will continue to escape until the system reaches equilibrium and the amount of gas incoming to the container equals the amount of gas escaping.

What does a liquid become when its particles have absorbed enough energy to escape the surface?
A gas
Does a liquid become a gas when its particles have absorbed enough energy to escape the surface?
yes
In liquid some of the particles have enough kinetic energy to escape from the surface.what is the process called?
The answer is conduction
What happens to substance during changed between liquid and gas?
The particles of the substance gain kinetic energy as they absorb heat energy. Eventually there is enough kinetic energy for the particles to escape the liquid phase, forming the gas phase.

When does water turn to a gas?
When water is heated up, it's particles gain energy. When they gain enough energy (when the water is hot enough), they break free of one another and escape as steam(a gas).

Can a current jump wires in a near complete vacuum?
Yes, possible. For example, the energy that an electron has to acquire in order to escape a solid has been published. That escape energy is termed electron affinity, and it is defined as the energy required to escape into a "vacuum." So, if two wires have a (strong enough) potential difference, and the charged particles have sufficient energy to overcome the energy barrier (to leave the solid), they can "jump" wires.

A liquid can expand when thermal energy is absorbed which is known as thermal expansion, but the thermal energy is not enough to change the liquid's state. When there is enough thermal energy, the liquid may change to a gas if the particles move fast enough to escape the liquid or it may change to a solid if the thermal energy is released from the matter.
