A change in matter which doesnt change the individual molecules?
physcial
Changes of state are considered physical changes because?
Physical changes are changes that don't change the structure of the individual molecules. Though heating a liquid to a gas will change how the molecules are bound to each other, the individual molecules will not change. This is contrasted from a chemical change, where the atoms of the molecules are rearranged.
Why do all states of matter have molecules?
All states of matter do not necessarily have molecules. The noble gases consist of individual atoms, and ionic compounds consist of ions, or formula units. All states of matter must contain atoms, molecules, or ions, because matter is made of atoms, molecules, and ions.
In physical change can matter change its shape?
If by matter you mean molecules / atoms then no. Physical change is when the look / shape of something is changed but not its chemical structure, chemical change is when the molecules that make up the object n question are changed.
Physical and chemical changes in matter always involve a change in what?
Molecules
Will a smaller object always have a smaller mass?
No, it depends on the degree of compactment of its individual molecules or matter.
How are the three states of matter different?
The three states of matter are different in terms of the attraction force on the individual molecules. The attraction force on the solids molecules is the greatest while the attraction force between the molecules in the gaseous state is he weakest.
What gives molecules different properties?
heat, heat can change the state of matter therefore speeding up molecules.
What happens to the molecules in the phase change evaporation?
the state of matter changes from liquid to gas, so the molecules spread out.
What happens to molecules when they change from one state of matter to another?
the denseness of the molecules change(compact=solid, really far=gas, in the middle=liquid)
The state of matter in which molecules are attracted to each other but can change position is a?
water
How does the rearrangement of water molecules change state of matter?
There are empty spaces between the particles of matter that are very large and that can be used to identify a substance because they never change.
