How do you know that particles in a gas have more energy than particles of same substance as a liquid or a solid?
We know that for any given substance, and at a given pressure, the gas phase exists at a higher temperature than the liquid phase, which exists at a higher temperature than the solid phase. And temperature measures heat energy per molecule or atom, hence, gas particles have more energy than particles of the same substance in their liquid or solid phase.
What are 3 properties of a gas?
RarefiedAmorphous, taking shape of the containerLower Density than solid or liquid of the same compound.Higher energy state than solid or liquid of the same material.Either the same temperature as the corresponding solid or liquid if both are present, or a higher temperature if only the gas is present.
When a solid melts and temperature remains the same so where does that heat energy go?
It increases the molecular energy of the substance, the molecules of a liquid move faster than those of a solid at the same temperature.
What happen to the temperature when ice is heated?
During a phase change (from solid to liquid, as in melting and also from liquid to gas as in boiling) the temperature remains constant, as all of the energy is going to affecting the change, rather than raising the temperature. Once it has changed from solid to liquid, the liquid can then raise in temperature.
Is energy released when a solid changes to a liquid?
The latent heat of fusion
Do liquid molecules have more energy than solid molecules?
They have more kinetic energy so they have a higher temperature, assuming the liquid and solid molecules are the same molecule. When you heat up something solid (like ice), you add energy, and the molecules move more quickly and separate, turning into a liquid (like water) and then a gas.
How does kinetic energy of solids liquids and gases compare?
The kinetic energy is lowest in solids, higher in liquids, and highest in gases.
How does liquid turn into solid?
To turn from a solid to a liquid it must reach it's melting point by heating up. Examples: ice to water, rocks to magma. Every thing melts at a different temperature.
What happens to the energy level of solid water as it become liquid water?
The things that happens to the energy level of solid as it become liquid water is that the liquid has more energy than solid do. Simple as that! BY: ANONYMOUS :)
Why is it more difficult to measure temperature of a solid than a liquid?
You can insert a thermometer directly into a liquid, but not into a solid. You can fairly easily measure the surface temperature of a solid object, but that does not necessarily reflect the temperature inside.

When solid and liquid phases are in equilibrium which phase solid or liquid contain the greater amount of energy?
The answer depends on the specifics of the question. The idea though, is that when they are in equilibrium, both the solid and the liquid should have the same amount of energy PER MOLECULE. The fact that there is a solid component and a liquid component means that either the solid is melting or the liquid is freezing. In most situations, that means that the temperature of the whole mixture is constant. Another idea is that the energy in the molecules can either be kinetic or potential energy. Basically, the more kinetic energy PER MOLECULE an object has, the higher the object's temperature. Furthermore, the more potential energy PER MOLECULE that the object has, the further apart the molecules are from each other. Combining these ideas, here are a few possible answers to your question. 1. There is more solid than liquid. On average, the solid's molecules have the same kinetic energy as the liquid. The solid, having more molecules, has more kinetic energy total. The liquid has more potential energy in total. The solid has more overall energy. 2. There is more liquid than solid. On average, the liquid's molecules have the same kinetic energy as the solid. The liquid, having more molecules, has more kinetic energy total. The liquid also has more potential energy in total. The liquid has more overall energy. 3. There are equal amounts of liquid and solid. On average, the liquid's molecules have the same kinetic energy as the solid. The liquid has equal kinetic energy as the solid due to the even split. The liquid also has more potential energy in total. The liquid has more overall energy. These three are the main possibilities, and as can be seen in the details, the answer depends on the relative amounts of liquid and solid.
