How can the motions of particles in a solid be described?
The particles in a solid are closely locked in position and can only vibrate.
What is the difference between particles in a solid and particles in a gas?
The particles of a solid are attracted strongly to other particles around them locking them into a fixed position in which they may only vibrate but not move freely from one position to another. The particles of a gas are the opposite. Not strongly attracted, but move randomly about bouncing off of other gas particles. This allows the gas particles to move to any position, not just remain surrounded by the same few particles.
How are particles liquids and solids the same?
They are EXACTLY the same particles but in a liquid they are further apart and free to move round as compared to the particles in the solid form which are fixed in their position, one relative to the other.
What has a definite shape and volume because its particles are packed tightly together and stay fixed in position?
This is the description of a solid.
How are the particls of a liquid different from the particles of a solid?
The particles of a liquid are not attached to each other. The particles of a solid are.
The Particles in a Solid are?
The particles are vibrating about their mean position.
How can the motions of particles in a solid be described?
The particles in a solid are closely locked in position and can only vibrate.
How can the motion of particles in Solid be described?
The particles in a solid are closely locked in position and can only vibrate.
What is the motion in solid iodine?
The particles vibrate in a fixed position
What process is happening when solid?
Particles are vibrating rapidly.
What is the difference between particles in a solid and particles in a gas?
The particles of a solid are attracted strongly to other particles around them locking them into a fixed position in which they may only vibrate but not move freely from one position to another. The particles of a gas are the opposite. Not strongly attracted, but move randomly about bouncing off of other gas particles. This allows the gas particles to move to any position, not just remain surrounded by the same few particles.
How is the arrangement of particles in a solid difference from the arrangement in a liquid?
In a liquid, the particles are free to move around; in a solid, they have a fixed position. In a solid, the particles may have a regular structure (i.e., a crystal), or the structure may be irregular.
A physical state composed of particles that vibrate in a fixed position is?
solid
Which process transfer heat when particles collide in a solid?
Conduction
Which process transfer heat when particles collide in solid?
Conduction
Are solid particles arranged in a pattern?
Particles tightley packed together do not change position PS trees
What state of matter has closely packed particles that don't change position?
solid.
