The molecules move freely and rapidly in all directions.
Their form remains the same - water is water. However, the molecules are in a gaseous state/phase (rather than liquid or solid state/phase).
Steam is a compound. It is actually water in the gaseous state.
Compared to a solid object's molecules no. Unless the water is ice. Water molecules are more compact than gaseous molecules.
The three states of water are solid (ice), liquid (water), and gas (water vapor). In the solid state, water molecules are closely packed together in a specific arrangement, forming a crystal lattice structure. In the liquid state, water molecules are more loosely arranged and able to move past each other. In the gas state, water molecules are far apart and move freely.
Yes, steam from boiling water is a mixture of water molecules in the gaseous state. It still contains only water molecules, just in a different phase.
Their form remains the same - water is water. However, the molecules are in a gaseous state/phase (rather than liquid or solid state/phase).
When water molecules are converted from the gaseous state (water vapor) to the liquid state (condensation), they lose speed. This is because in the liquid state, the water molecules are more closely packed together, leading to a decrease in their average kinetic energy and thus a decrease in their speed.
When water changes from a liquid to a gaseous state, its molecules gain energy and move faster, breaking the hydrogen bonds that hold them together in the liquid state. As a result, the arrangement of water molecules becomes more dispersed and random, transitioning from a relatively close-packed configuration to an expansive gaseous state. This increased movement allows the molecules to spread out and occupy a larger volume, leading to the formation of water vapor.
Water molecules in the vapor phase are invisible because they are in a gaseous state where the molecules are spread out and not densely packed together. This makes them too small and scattered to reflect or absorb visible light, which is why we cannot see them.
In its solid state (ice), water molecules are arranged in a rigid lattice structure with low kinetic energy. In its liquid state, water molecules are more loosely packed and have higher kinetic energy, allowing for movement and flow. In its gaseous state (water vapor), water molecules have high kinetic energy and are spread out, moving freely and independently.
A phasechange is occured in water molecules, from liquid state to gaseous state.
No. Water vapor is water in a gaseous state. It consists of water molecules each with one oxygen atom and two hydrogen atom.
Steam is a compound. It is actually water in the gaseous state.
Compared to a solid object's molecules no. Unless the water is ice. Water molecules are more compact than gaseous molecules.
When heat is applied to water, the molecules excite and move faster, and change into a gaseous state.

Water is made of water molecules whatever state it is in. In the gas phase the molecules are far apart and moving rapidly.
