Best Answer

Physical properties change depending on their current temperature. From coldest to hottest: Solid, liquid, gas, plasma.

How particles change as they change state from solid to liquid?

if its going from a solid to a liquid the particles move FAST. if its going from a liquid to a solid the particles freeze and move VERY slowly.


What is changed when matter undergoes a phisical change?

When matter undergoes a physical change (like changes in the state of matter), the space between the particles in the matter and how the particles move change.


How particles change as they change state from gas to liquid?

Decreasing temperature reduce the speed of gas particles then their inter molecular forces increase,particles come close to each other and become liquid

What is it called when particles move randomly and are well spaced out?

Particles are close but disorganized will change from gaseous state to liquid form. Once in liquid form the particles will spread out.


Why does a substance change?

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.
