What happens to the distance between particles of a substance as it changes from a liquid to a gas?

The distance increases, as the particles become more energetic and the substance loses its definite volume, as the particles bounce around, due to heat/increased energy.

Describe how the motion and arrangements of particles change as a substance freezes?
The particles get so attracted to each other making them form into a solid
What happens to a substance during changing between a solid to a liquid?
When a substance changes from a solid to a liquid and vice versa, its density changes.
What happens to the forces of attractions between particles as the temperature changes and why?

What effect does the speed of molecules have of matter?
The speed of the particles in a substance changes when the temperature changes. Heating the substance causes the particles to speed up, while cooling causes the particles to slow down.
How does the arrangement and movement of particles change as a substance changes from a liquid to a gas and solid to a liquid?
From a liquid to a gas, the particles become more spread out and move slower. From a solid to a liquid, the particles also become more spread out and move slower.
What happens to the particles when the substance changes shape?
yes! particles of a substance assume different shapes and sizes
As a substance changes from a liquid to a gas the space between its particles?
......... distances become 100 to 1000 times bigger
The speed of the particles in a substance change when what changes?
electrons
What happens to substance during changes between gas to liquid?
The particles of the substance gain kinetic energy as they absorb heat energy. Eventually there is enough kinetic energy for the particles to escape the liquid phase, forming the gas phase.
Is the speed of the particles in a substance changes when the temperature changes?
Yes, in fact, particle movement is what heat is.
What happes to particles when a substance gains energy and changes state?
particals
What is the connection between kinetic energy and the movement of particles in a substance?
The link is that the particles never completely stop and the particles maintains this kinetic energy unless its speed changes I.E. heating or cooling. when you add heat the particles move faster and when you cool they move slower.
How is the kinetic energy of the particles that make up a substance different after it changes?
If you mean by heating it... When you heat a substance, the thermal energy of its particles increases. This means that the particles will move around faster as they have a higher kinetic energy.
What happens to a substance during changes between a solid and a gas?
The molecules of the substance gain thermal energy as a result of which they vibrate more energetically. When the molecules have acquired enough energy they escape from the solid and enter the gaseous phase. Incidentally, there is no requirement for there to be a liquid phase between the solid and gas.

Does a liquid turn into gas when the particles get colder?
No, a substance changes from gas to liquid to solid as it cools.
How does adding energy to matter by heating it affect the energy of its particles?
Adding heat will do one of the following, or both: * The temperature of the substance increases. The individual particles move faster; their kinetic energy increases. * The substance changes its state (for example, when ice melts, it changes from solid to liquid). The potential energy of the particles increases.
