How do gasses liquid and soilds differ in respect of the spaces between particles?

Liquids have smaller spaces between the molecules than a gas, and Solids have smaller spaces than liquids.


What is the rate at which liquid passes through the pore spaces of a rock Surplus?

Permeability


What happens when vapour if it water cools down?

as the spaces between the dissolved particles is reduced, the solid will form a crystal. Its how sea salt is prepaired.


Does liquid and gas have a definite shape?

both are indefinite shape. Because they can change when in different spaces.


How is the space of atoms in a solid different from a liquid and a gas?

A solid is more compact.

What happens when the vacant spaces between the particles of a liquid decreases how can you do this?

you can shrink the spaces within the molecules of liquid by increasing the temperature (freezing it ) or adding pressure.


Why can solids be converted to liquids?

In solids the intermolecular spaces are very small and the intermolecular forces of attraction are very high.When a solid is heated or get some form of energy, due to this the bonds between the molecules break and the intermolecular spaces increase.Thus as intermolecular spaces in liquid is greater it is converted to a liquid.


What happens when a solute dissolves in a liquid?

The particles of that solute go into the empty spaces around the water particles.


Is a particle of liquid Mercury the same size as the space between particles of Mercury in gas form?

No. The spaces between the particles in a gas are much bigger than the particles themselves. The size of a particle does not vary between the states of a substance.


How does a particle theory explain how a solute dissolves into a solvent?

You can use the particle theory to help explain what happens when solutes dissolve. The particle theory states that there are spaces between all particles. This means that, in a sample of water, there are many water particles, but also many empty spaces. When you look at sugar. The sugar dissolves, the sugar particles separate and mix with the water particles.


What happens to the intermolecular spaces when some energy is removed from a gas or liquid it decreases it increases it is not affected or increases and decreases alternatively?

By removing energy, what you mean is reducing temperature. A gas or liquid will contract as it gets colder, and intermolecular spaces will decrease.


How does a solid dissolve into a liquid?

a solid dissolves into a liquid because of the free inter molecular spaces in between the molecules of the liquid or the solvent......... for example if we dissolve sugar in water and stirr the water , the sugar dissapears . this happens because the molecules of water are not yery closely placed and the sugarparticles go and fit inside the molecular spaces.......


Do gas molecules get bigger when heated?

No, but the spaces between them gets bigger.


What is a theory in science for kids?

The particle theory is a good theory that's sort of simple to understand. The particle theory consists of five parts. 1) All matter is made up of small particles 2) The particles are attracted to each other. 3) Particles are always moving. 4)When heated, particles move faster and move farther apart. 5) There are spaces between each particle.


Why are the liquid mobile?

liquid are mobile because the emptied spaces b/w them


What is the evidence that molecules of g as large spaces between them compared to liquids and solids?

well,.....for gas when it is heated the molecules spread and have power and become into vapor, and compared to liquid and solid it is larger because liquid is a not a solid and does not have a fixed shape, and a solid has a fixed shape and gas can be put into anything!


How do gasses liquid and soilds differ in respect of the spaces between particles?

Liquids have smaller spaces between the molecules than a gas, and Solids have smaller spaces than liquids.
