Gas because it spreads out and all the atoms are moving around.

What state of matter has the most energy stored as interaction energy?

Plasma has the most energy stored as interaction energy compared to solid, liquid, and gas states of matter. Plasma is a state of matter in which atoms are ionized and the electrons are detached from the nucleus, leading to high energy levels due to strong interactions between charged particles.


Molecule movement is greatest in what state of matter?

Molecule movement is greatest in the gaseous state of matter, where molecules have the most kinetic energy and are able to move freely and rapidly.


What is the lowest allowable energy state of an atom?

The lowest allowable energy state of an atom is called the ground state. In this state, the electron occupies the energy level closest to the nucleus, known as the 1s orbital in the case of hydrogen. The electron has the lowest energy and is most stable in the ground state.


What is the most common reason for matter changing its state Why?

The most common reason for matter changing its state is a change in temperature. When heat is added or removed, the energy in the particles of matter changes, causing them to rearrange and transition from one state to another (e.g. solid to liquid, liquid to gas). This change in energy alters the intermolecular forces between particles, leading to a change in state.


In which state of matter do the molecules have the most energy?

The gas state has the most energy out of all three states because of how freely the molecules are moving, and able to move. In a solid, the molecules are forced together, with minimal space to move. In a liquid, the molecules are able to move a considerable space, but not as freely as gas. This answer is based on the "basic" three states of matter - solids, liquids and gases. There are other states of matter, and a plasma is a state of extreme energy. For instance, a star like our sun is a big ball of plasma. And plasma is a collection of atoms that have so much thermal energy that all their electrons have been "boiled off" due to extreme heating. Heat a solid, it liquifies (sublimatin excepted). Heat a liquid, it boils. Heat a gas sufficiently, and it will shed its electrons and become a superheated - and highly energetic - substance. It will become a plasma. Note that there are other states of matter, but they don't involve extremely high energies.

Which state in science has the most energy?

The state in which matter has the most energy is plasma. Plasma is a state of matter where the particles, such as electrons and protons, have enough energy to break free from their atoms, resulting in a highly energized and electrically charged state.

What is the state of most of the matter is the universe?

The most common type of energy/mass in the Universe is in the form of dark energy, followed by dark matter. Only about 4% of the Universe is in the form of "normal" (baryonic) matter. If it is specifically to this matter you refer: the most common state of matter is plasma, found in stars.

Water as steam in the gas state has the most energy compared to water in the liquid or solid state.


What state of matter has the highest energy called?

The gas state has the most energy out of all three states because of how freely the molecules are moving, and able to move.


What state of matter to particles have the most thermal energy?

Plasma's are the most energetic states we have discovered but the answer you are probably looking for is when the matter is in a gaseous state, that is when the atoms have dissociated from each other almost completely. But in plasma the particles that make up an atom have dissociated.


Is gas the most dense state of matter?

Gas is actually the least dense state of matter. In a gas, particles are spread out and have high energy causing them to move rapidly and take up a large volume. Solids are the most dense state because their particles are tightly packed together.
