they are the same as normal liquid wax and solid wax, solids are closer together and liquids are not as close together

Are the molecules in water closer together when it is a solid or when it is a liquid?
when the water molecules are of a liquid, they are farther apart and able to move around the space of the liquid as apposed to a solid where the molecules are closely packed together and cannot move much. i hope that answers your question.
In which state of matter are the molecules most tightly packed?
The same mass of a substance contains the same number of molecules regardless of whether it's solid, liquid, or gas. However, generally, the solid form is the densest, so it will normally have more mass (and therefore more molecules) per unit volume than the liquid or gas phases. This is not always true, but it's a good rule of thumb.
What makes a liquid different from a solid of the same substance?
the arrangement of it's molecules...... which depend on kinetic energy and intermolecular force.
What is the difference in mass between a solid and a liquid?
A solid and liquid have the same mass if the amount is the same.
What form are molecules in water vapor?
Their form remains the same - water is water. However, the molecules are in a gaseous state/phase (rather than liquid or solid state/phase).
What happens when a solid a liquid and gas when it changes its state?
Well solid to liquid the heat speeds up the molecules and same for liquid to gas but from liquid to solid the coolant slows the molecules down
Are the atoms of sulphur in the liquid the same as the atoms in solid sulphur?
The atoms in a liquid are the same as the atoms in a solid. They are simply arranged in a different way, and have different energy and different intermolecular forces.
Are gas molecules further apart than solid molecules and liquid molecules?
Generally, the molecules in gases are further apart than molecules of the same substance in either liquid or solid state. However, note the existence of a critical temperature for each substance. Above the critical temperature, no liquid or solid phase can exist, but it would be theoretically possible to compress a supercritical substance so that it would have closer molecules than some liquid form of the same substance.
What is a solid and a gas at the same time?
Water can be a solid, liquid, and gas at the same time. This is due to the varying energies of the molecules while they are in a changing state.
Do liquid molecules have more energy than solid molecules?
They have more kinetic energy so they have a higher temperature, assuming the liquid and solid molecules are the same molecule. When you heat up something solid (like ice), you add energy, and the molecules move more quickly and separate, turning into a liquid (like water) and then a gas.

When solid and liquid phases are in equilibrium which phase solid or liquid contain the greater amount of energy?
The answer depends on the specifics of the question. The idea though, is that when they are in equilibrium, both the solid and the liquid should have the same amount of energy PER MOLECULE. The fact that there is a solid component and a liquid component means that either the solid is melting or the liquid is freezing. In most situations, that means that the temperature of the whole mixture is constant. Another idea is that the energy in the molecules can either be kinetic or potential energy. Basically, the more kinetic energy PER MOLECULE an object has, the higher the object's temperature. Furthermore, the more potential energy PER MOLECULE that the object has, the further apart the molecules are from each other. Combining these ideas, here are a few possible answers to your question. 1. There is more solid than liquid. On average, the solid's molecules have the same kinetic energy as the liquid. The solid, having more molecules, has more kinetic energy total. The liquid has more potential energy in total. The solid has more overall energy. 2. There is more liquid than solid. On average, the liquid's molecules have the same kinetic energy as the solid. The liquid, having more molecules, has more kinetic energy total. The liquid also has more potential energy in total. The liquid has more overall energy. 3. There are equal amounts of liquid and solid. On average, the liquid's molecules have the same kinetic energy as the solid. The liquid has equal kinetic energy as the solid due to the even split. The liquid also has more potential energy in total. The liquid has more overall energy. These three are the main possibilities, and as can be seen in the details, the answer depends on the relative amounts of liquid and solid.
What kind of molecule is liquid?
A liquid has the same molecules as a solid, plasma, or gas. The only difference is how close together they are, or, in other words, the desity.

Are the atoms of sulphur in the liquid the same as the atoms in a solid sulpher?

Is there a chemical difference between the gauseos and liquid state of the same substance?
There is no chemical difference, the only difference is the speed in which the molecules of the substances move. Slower molecules can be solid or liquid and very high speed molecules can be gas.
