If they collide hard enough, and have the right orientation, a reaction can take place. This is called collision theory, and it's a big part of kinetic molecular theory.

What are the arrangement of molecules of each state?

Molecules in liquid goes fast and its able to flow around. Molecules in solid aren't able to move around and is stuck together. Lastly, Molecules in gas are able to move around wicked fast and does not bunch together.


How state of matter is made up of atoms and molecules that have a comparatively low amount of kinetic energy which does not allow the particles to break free from the attractive forces between themW?

In a state of matter with low kinetic energy, such as a solid or a liquid, the particles (atoms or molecules) are not moving as fast as in a gas, so they are held together by strong attractive forces. These forces prevent the particles from breaking free and moving independently, giving the substance its characteristic shape and volume.


When water is heated does the size of the water molecules decrease?

For the small change of temperature between where water exists as a liquid and as a gas the molecules will stay the same size. What changes is the speed the molecules are moving at. Hotter is faster. When moving fast enough (having absorbed enough energy) the molecules break away from the liquid to become water vapour.


What can you infer about the friction between the atoms of a very fast flowing liquid?

In a very fast flowing liquid, the friction between the atoms is likely to be higher due to the rapid movement of molecules rubbing against each other. This can result in an increase in heat generation and viscosity of the liquid.
