Molecules in a liquid can move past each other, if that's what you were trying to ask; I'm not sure what "separate past each other" is supposed to mean.
Particles completely separate from each other when the attractive forces between them are overcome by the thermal energy in the system. This typically occurs at the boiling point of a substance, when the intermolecular forces are fully disrupted and the particles transition from a liquid to a gas phase.
solids
Particles in a liquid have only a small amount of space between each other. They have more energy then solid particles but less energy than gas particles. Particles in liquid roll over each other this is what causes water to flow.
In a liquid particles move around freely and are constantly interacting with each other. They move by bouncing off each other creating friction.
In order for a liquid to become a gas, the particles in the liquid have to heat up enough to separate and further themselves out from each other. Bobette la Baleine : That's what I said in a shorter way.
Particles can move over each other while still being mutually attracted to each other in the liquid state. In liquids, the particles have enough energy to slide past each other while still experiencing intermolecular forces that keep them close together, giving liquids their characteristic ability to flow.
In a liquid, particles are more loosely packed and able to move past each other, whereas in a solid, particles are tightly packed and vibrate in fixed positions. The intermolecular forces in a liquid are weaker than in a solid, allowing the particles to flow and take the shape of their container.
Particles in a liquid move freely and randomly, constantly colliding and interacting with each other. These interactions result in the fluidity and ability of liquids to flow.
Particles in a liquid can slide past each other but are still packed together.
Liquid particles are closely arranged but they can move around each other. Solid particles are closely arranged and can only vibrate about a fixed position. Gas particles are far apart from each other and can move about in any direction.
Yes, liquid particles collide randomly with each other due to their constant motion and interactions. These collisions influence the behavior and properties of liquids, such as viscosity and diffusion.
Liquid particles move in random directions due to their kinetic energy. The particles are free to flow and slide over each other, creating a fluid or liquid state of matter.
