What depends upon how close the individual particles are together?
The state of matter depends on the closeness of the particles. Gases have particles that are very far apart and solids are close together. This is determined by the strength of attraction of these particles to one another.
Which is measure of how closely particles are packed together?
The measurement of how closely particles are packed together is usually by state of matter. Gasses are measured as have particles that are further apart than liquids or solids for example.
A state of matter that contains particles that are tightly linked together in a definite shape?
In SOLIDS, molecules are most tightly bonded together.
When the attractive forces holding particles together are strong enough to hold them together as a group but not as a fixed position they form a what?
Liquid. The liquid state lies between the gaseous and the solid state. The cohesive (attractive) forces between the liquid particles are strong enough to keep them together but not to keep them in a fixed position.
Why is water considered cohesive?
Cohesion is the force of attraction between adjacent particles within the same body, the intermolecular forces holding particles of a substance together. Cohesion in water is illustrated by the surface tension caused by the inward pull on the surface molecules, and also in the transformation of a liquid into a solid state when the molecules are brought close together as happens during freezing. The hydrogen and oxygen atoms of water are bound strongly into molecules bound weakly to each other by cohesion.
Is it true that particles of a compound are most strongly held together when it is the state of a gas?
No. The particles are held strongly in the case of solid and least in the case of gases.
What are the forces holding particles in solid state in PCl3 compound?
ionic
Which state has state particles that are the closest together?
This is the solid state of matter.
The particles are in a constant state of motion and rarely stick together?
The state in which matter is rarely sticking together is a gas because it has no definite shape or volume therefor its atoms/particles move freely rarely sticking together

What state of matter has particles that very close together and do not move?
solids
In which state of matter are particles packed very tightly together?
Solid !
Do change of state make cooling causes particles to get closer together and materials?
does boiling causees change of state do the particles in amaterial become closer

What is it called when the particles are tightly packed together?
its not a substance its a state of matter which is the solid the solid's particles are packed tightly together glad 2 help !! :)
Which state of matter do particles stay close together yet are able to move past one another?
If the bits of matter are close together and move slowly, the matter is a GAS
Why do particles have the most energy of motion in the gas state?
This is because in a gaseous state particles are not closely bound together so they have more space to move freely at higher velocities.
