What will happen when atom and molecules of substance melt freeze boil or condense?

When a substance melts, the molecules move more freely and when it freezes, they move more slowly. When a substance boils and becomes a vapor (gas), the molecules again move faster than when in the liquid state, and when the vapor condenses, the molecules move slower.

What 2 things happen to the molecules of a substance when matter changes state?
nothings its a dumb question
What could happen if water evaporate but could not condense?
This water remain as a gas.
Why doesn't the freeze-thaw cycle happen in Antarctica?
The freeze-thaw cycle does happen in Antarctica, but the thaw is never complete.
What causes the big freeze to happen?
the Chinese
What may happen to the boiling point of the substance if there are impurities present?
The boiling point will increase. The impurities essentially "block" the molecules of the substance from leaving the liquid as a gas, so a higher temp is needed to boil it. see colligative properties.
What happen to the average energy of the molecules in a substance when it is heated?
They increase in energy.
What happen to a substance when it is heated?
The velocity of the atoms/molecules (that the substance is made of) increase.
What would have to happen to condense oxygen to air?
Condense it from what??? Its a gas.

Why does expansion happen?
Expansion occurs when a substance is heated. The energy given to the molecules in the substance causes them to vibrate and so they get pushed further apart, causing the substance to expand.
After cloud droplets form what must happen to them for precipitation to occur?
Many water molecules condense on a tiny particle.
What happen when water condense?
It forms a cloud then it rains
What will happen when a vapor condense into liquid?
it become as in the form of bubbles
What will happen to the atom or molecule of a substance when it boil?
the atoms and molecules will vibrate, causing the substance to heat up (friction causes heat, the molecules and atoms will rub together, causing friction). I hope this helped!!!!!n_n when a substance reaches its boiling point naturally the intermolecular force becomes weak and the substance gets converted from one form to another..
What will happen to the atoms or molecules of a substance when it condenses?
When a substance condenses, it turns from a vapor (gas) into a liquid. When this occurs, the atoms/molecules lose some kinetic energy, and don't move as fast. They also become packed closer together, and take up less volume.
What would happen if 1 percent to condense steam in the atmosphere?
nothing
What happen to the molecules when a substance changed state from a liquid to a gas?
They move freely in all directions (except collisions), no forces between each other
