How does decreasing the temperature of a liquid change the particles that make up liquid?

Decreasing the temperature of a liquid makes the particles that make up the liquid slow down and become more packed together. This causes liquids to change to solids (freezing point).

∙ 9y agoSubjecting substances to heat, or cooling them affects the atomic and molecules that comprise the system. Application of heat energy to a system will increase their kinetic energy and collisions with other and the containing system. In a gas and liquid this results in pressure. Cooling a gas can change its state into a solid and liquid respectively. The freezing of water into solid ice is actually less dense than liquid water (it floats) is from the molecular a spacing effect.

Can liquid particles change places?
Yes
What happens to the particles of matter during a chemical change?
it will change to liquid
How can you change liquid water into a solid or a gas?
You can you change liquid water into a solid (ice) by lowering its temperature. You can you change liquid water into a gas (water vapor) by raising its temperature.
Explain why the temperature of Wax remains constant during solidification?
it's because it releases the latent heat of fusion. Latent heat means energy is given out when a substance changes from liquid to solid without a change in temperature. and the transfer of energy doesnt change the KE of the particles, so the temperature remains unchanged. lanten heat gives rise to the change in PE of the particles during the change of state only
What can change the solubility of a solid in a liquid?
temperature. The higher the temperature of the liquid, the more of the solid you can dissolve in it.
How does the temperature of a liquid change the particles that make up the liquid?
Decreasing the temperature of a liquid makes the particles that make up the liquid slow down and become more packed together. This causes liquids to change to solids (freezing point).
How particles change as they change state from gas to liquid?
Decreasing temperature reduce the speed of gas particles then their inter molecular forces increase,particles come close to each other and become liquid
To change or cause to change from liquid to solid state?
Decreasing the temperature a liquid become a solid.
Why does the rate of photosynthesis stays the same at a certain temperature?
Why The Temperature Stays The SameDuring a phase change, the average energy of the particles remains the same, but, the particles are rearranging themselves. Particles become less organized as their energy increases, so the substance changes from a solid to a liquid to a gas. As the energy of the particles becomes less, the particles rearrange themselves more orderly, so a gas changes to a liquid and then to a solid. The total energy of the particles changes - by increasing or decreasing, because the particles are not increasing or decreasing their speed, just their arrangement. The average energy doesn't change. The energy change is hidden from a thermometer and is called 'hidden heat' or 'latent heat'.
What process causes changes of state?
In a word, temperature. A physical change will change the matter's state based on it's temperature. For example, water, H2O. You can increase the temperature to 212oF and it will change state from a liquid to a gas. You can decrease the temperature to 32oF and it will change state from a liquid to a solid. To answer your question, the process of doing so would be increasing or decreasing temperature of matter.
Why do particles change state?
Physical properties change depending on their current temperature. From coldest to hottest: Solid, liquid, gas, plasma.
Why does raising the temperature cause liquid to boil?
Decreasing the pressure -APEX
How does a solid goes to a liquid then go to a gas?
Definitely on heating a solid can change into liquid state because on heating the kinetic energy of the particles of solid increase and they move more freely.At stage a particular stage particles leave their definite place and solid change into liquid.Again when we heat liquid it changes into on a particular temperature at atmospheric temperature and this temperature is known as its boiling point
How can things change?
it can change them between states of Matter: Gas,Liquid,Solid and it can make the materials particles move faster (higher temperature).
How particles change as they change state from solid to liquid?
if its going from a solid to a liquid the particles move FAST. if its going from a liquid to a solid the particles freeze and move VERY slowly.
What happens to water particles as liquid water evaporates?
its developes particles Condensation is the process of gas changing into liquid. The particles lose heat energy when cooled, as a result : energy of particles decreases. Attractive forces or intermolecular forces between particles get more friction. Then gas changes into liquid. Therefore, the particles get closer to each other like the liquid's properties.
How can heat change things?
it can change them between states of Matter: Gas,Liquid,Solid and it can make the materials particles move faster (higher temperature).
