no, that is the opposite, molecules will move faster and farther apart when the state changes from liquid to gas

What happens when water turns into liquid?
the bonds between the water molecules are broken
When water turns to ice are new molecules formed?
No, when water turns to ice, no new molecules are formed. The molecules in water rearrange themselves into a crystal lattice structure when they freeze, but the individual water molecules remain the same.
Why does changing a liquid to a gas require a large amount of heat energy?
It excites the molecules enough to make them break away from each other and become a gas; it forces molecules further away. Temperature is just a measure of how much energy(movement) a molecule has.
What happens when water boils and turns in to gas?
When matter is heated the molecules move faster and the speed becomes so great the molecules cannot hold together. The molecules fly apart and become a gas.
What happens to metal when it's heated?
1. Thermal expansion 2. If metals are heated in air some can react with oxygen.
When energy is removed from a liquid do the molecules move faster or slower?
I might be wrong, but I would say slower. If you mean energy in form of heat, molecules move slower if the liquid is colder, so if a liquid releases energy in form of heat (turns ¨cooler¨), than the molecules move slower. As I said, I might be wrong. Just my thoughts
How does matter turn into a gas?
As matter heats up, it vibrates at a faster rate, and bonds between molecules start to break up, making it a liquid, then as it vibrates faster it turns into a gas because there are no bonds between the molecules.
When a liquid turns into a solid the pattern of the molecules becomes more BLANK?
Orderly
What happens when water turns into liquid?
the bonds between the water molecules are broken
What happen to the molecules of water vapor when the temperature of the gas cools?
the water vapor turns to liquid
What happens to the molecules of water vapor when the temperature of the gas cools?
the water vapor turns to liquid
When water turns to ice are new molecules formed?
No, when water turns to ice, no new molecules are formed. The molecules in water rearrange themselves into a crystal lattice structure when they freeze, but the individual water molecules remain the same.
How does heat affect the molecules in a substance?
They rapidly vibrate. Yes, they do, but how rapidly depends on the amount of heat (kinetic energy) added to the molecules. If solid, they will eventually melt depending on which solid and what its melting point is. If liquid, they will eventually become a gas or vapor, and a gas will expand indefinitely into the atmosphere if not contained within something. Think of water: ice heats to liquid water which in turn becomes steam (vapor) which goes out into the atmosphere unless it is contained. If the container cannot expand and the water vapor (or any other gas) continues to be heated, eventually the gas will cause the container to explode because the internal pressure will exceed the ability of the container to hold it.
Why are molecules closer when its a solid?
molecules that start closing together turn into solid example: think of water, when molecules are loose the water is liquid but when the molecules are packed together the water turns into ice
What does the sun have to do with water power?
The energy from the sun turns liquid water molecules into water vapor, which is steam.
What is the relationship between temperature and density of liquids and gases?
Temperature can control the density of liquids and gases because the temperature can make the molecules move faster when its hotter or slower when its cold. Think of water. When it's hot, it creates steam by making the molecules move and spread into the air because molecules are moving around and spreading out within the room. When water's cold, it turns into ice because molecules slow down and stop, which turns the liquid into a solid.
Why does changing a liquid to a gas require a large amount of heat energy?
It excites the molecules enough to make them break away from each other and become a gas; it forces molecules further away. Temperature is just a measure of how much energy(movement) a molecule has.
