Why are the molecules loosely packed in gases?
The kinetic energy of the gas molecules is greater than the attractive forces between the gas molecules. This means they are moving so fast they 'bump' off of each other maintaining a large average distance between themselves. In Liquids and solids the opposite is true. The attraction forces of the molecules for each other is greater than the kinetic energy so the molecules are very close, basically in touch with each other. Use water as an example. At normal temperatures water molecules have a strong attraction for other water molecules. This keeps them together as a liquid. Heating increases the kinetic energy of the water molecules. When they have absorbed a lot of kinetic energy the attractions are not great enough to keep them together as a liquid, so they 'boil' forming 'water gas', called steam. Because the extra kinetic energy makes the molecules move so fast they now bounce off of each other instead of attracting and clumping together as a liquid. As steam they now take up over 1000 times as much space as they did as a liquid.
What is the name of the plant that falls when you touch it?
The name of the plant that falls when you touch it is Sensitive Plant (Mimosa Pudica). It is also called touch-me-not, tickleme plant and other names.
What needs to happen for conduction to occur?
Two molecules must collide with each other.
What happens when fast-moving molecules touch other molecules making them move fast?
depending on the type of collisiontype in google(Collision Types) and readwhen molecule collide with other moleculeit may loose some energy and the other will gain it in form ofkeniticenergy and speed upif the lost energy =the gained energy in the other molecule it will be elastic collisionand if the lost energy isn`tequal to the gained energy ( some energy transformed to other form as sound ) so it won`tbe elastic collision
Is it true that the lines of latitude called meridians never touch?
Not quite. Lines of latitude are called parallels, and they never touch each other. The meridians are lines of longitude, and all of them converge at the poles.
What happens when fast moving molecules touch other molecules?
Heat transfer
When fast molecules touch other molecules making them move faster is called what?
heat transfer.
What happens when fast moving molecules touch?
If they collide hard enough, and have the right orientation, a reaction can take place. This is called collision theory, and it's a big part of kinetic molecular theory.
When your computer has a moving background when you dont touch it is called what?
That would be the screen saver.
How do conduction occur?
Conduction occurs when two object at different temperatures are in contact with each other. Heat flows from the warmer to the cooler object until they are both at the same temperature. Conduction is the movement of heat through a substance by the collision of molecules. At the place where the two object touch, the faster-moving molecules of the warmer object collide with the slower moving molecules of the cooler object. As they collide, the faster molecules give up some of their energy to the slower molecules. The slower molecules gain more thermal energy and collide with other molecules in the cooler object. This process continues until heat energy from the warmer object spreads throughout the cooler object.

A group of cells that touch each other and form a rectangle is called?
A group of cells that touch each other and form a rectangle is called a range. These selected cells are adjacent to each other.
Can bar graphs touch each other?
No, if they are, it is called a histogram
Why do distant galaxies appear to be moving away from each other the farther they are from your planet?
Because you touch yourself at night

If you were moving to the other side of the country and your best guy friend called you a lot of names should you forgive him even if he doesnt say sorry?
* Yes, you should forgive your friend because they are angry that you are moving to the other side of the country and they are fearful that you will lose touch with each other. Your friend is sad you are leaving and is taking his actions out by calling you names. If you have time go somewhere quiet where you can talk to your friend and give the reasons why you have to move and that you will keep in touch and quite possibly they can come visit you. Your friend will soon forgive you for moving. One should never lose touch with a good best friend because they are very scarce in an individual's life.
