Molecules and everything in them can move in many ways, and energy is associated with all of those different kinds of motion. There is translational movement. Molecules can move from one place to another.There is also rotational movement. That is, they can turn around and around.The third way shown here is vibrational movement.In addition, electrons can move from place to place and orbital to orbital.
These types of motion and the energy associated with them influence the physical properties of chemicals. The color of chemicals is often associated with changes in electron energy levels.
The phase of chemicals is associated with translational and rotational motion of molecules. In the gas phase molecules are free to move from one place to another and also have considerable translational motion.
Rotational motion can involve the entire molecule rotating or the internal parts of the molecule rotating with respect to one another. These types of rotation are found in molecules in both the gas phase and the liquid phase.
Vibrational motion is found in molecules in all three of the phases. It is the vibrational motion and the energy needed to change it that we will focus on now.

Molecule movement is greatest in what state of matter?
Liquid
What happens to the movement of molecule when their temperature is raised?
They begin to move faster. The increased temperature increases the energy of the molecule.
What is he freedom of movement in molecules in a substance called?
The kinetic theory of molecules gives the idea about the movement and the behavior of the molecules in any different phase. The chemical reactivity of a particular molecule can be identified on the basis of kinetic theory of molecules. The phase of molecules changes and so changes it entropy ( movement of molecule in available space)
What is a molecule movement on each state of matter and what is its chariristics?
in a solid they are slow, in a liquid they are faster, and in a gass they are fastest. hope i answered you're questing to you're liking. :)
What type of molecule movement consist on one way diffusion across a semi permeable membrane?
The movement of molecules across the semipermeable membrane follows the law of diffusion. Thus, the molecules of a substance move from their higher concentration towards their lower concentration by their own kinetic energy.
Does a liquid or a gas molecule have greater movement?
Gas movement is greater.
What molecule is utilized by muscle cells for movement?
actin myosin and cell movement
What is the molecule movement of the troposphere?
it moves fast
What is the movement Of molecule back into the blood?
reabsorption
What can happen to the amount of space between molecule in gas?
In warmer temperatures, that space can/will expand, molecule movement will increase and collisions will occur. In cooler temperatures, that space can/will decrease & molecule movement will slow down.
What do you call the membrane that allowed the movement of molecule?
osmosis
How do you determine absolute zero?
No molecule movement at all.
What is the name of the molecule movement when sugar has dissolved into water?
diffusion
What happens to molecule movement when heat is removed?
goes slower
Molecule movement is greatest in what state of matter?
Liquid
What happens to the movement of molecule when their temperature is raised?
They begin to move faster. The increased temperature increases the energy of the molecule.
Is molecule movement is greastest a solid?
Molecular movement in a solid is very minimal. Molecular movement in liquids and gases are greater than in a solid.
