Would you expect the motions of particles in all state of matter to increase or decrease as ths temperature increase?

The general tendency is for the average speed of particles to increase as temperature increases.
But please note that temperature can't be DEFINED simply as the average speed; it is more closely related to the average ENERGY per particle. And the energy for each particle depends on the SQUARE of the speed; but it also depends on the mass of the particle.

When a liquid is heated does the energy of it increase?
When you add energy to a substance it's temperature will remain constant if there is a change of state from solid to liquid or liquid to gas. The energy added is absorbed in changing state; known as latent heat of fusion (melting), or latent heat of vaporization. For some substances a similar effect can occur if there is a chemical change. There are also situation where an influx of energy will cause a decrease in temperature. One such is drinking water stored in a canvas container. Sunlight causing the wet canvas to evaporate some of its water will effect a decrease in the temperature of the stored water.
What is it called When particles mix with each other without anything moving them?
Diffusion. It happens because of the random motions of particles in a fluid.
What causes the bownian motions in a colliod?
molecules of the dispersion medium colliding with dispersed phase particles
What causes Brownian motions in colloids?
molecules of the dispersion medium colliding with dispersed phase particles.
When the temperature increases molecules are in constant motions when?
sugar dissolves faster in hot tea than in cold tea
What are the role of particles in the transfer of heat?
When energy is transfered to a system of particles, the system is said to be heated. The particles absorb this energy and convert it to kinetic energy, causing their translational motions to increase. Temperature is a measure of the average translational motion of particles. Hence, heating an object causes the particles that make up that object to move more and these motions manifest themselves in what we know as the temperature of the object. In fact in the absolute temperature scale of thermodynamics a zero temperature corresponds to a system of particles in which there is no motion.

What is the motions of particles when it is boiling?
particles move randomely
How the motions of gas particles are related to the pressure by the gas?
is motions of gas particles are related to the pressure exerted by the gas
What happens to the motion of an object's particles as their thermal energy increases?
They start to move faster, therefore, the reaction will happen quicker. This is because there is more chance of a collision between the particles.
What motions do solid particles have?
They have only vibrational movement
What do the constant motions of gas particles allow the gas to do?
The constant motions allow the gas to fill whatever contains it.
How can the motions of particles in a solid be described?
The particles in a solid are closely locked in position and can only vibrate.
How do the state of matter different in terms of motions of their particles?
ing particles, Liquids will have moderately moving particles, and Solids will have the slowest moving
