the answer is that the particles in the liquid turn solid then it turns into vapor that later turns into a gas. NEXT ANSWER: There are three basic states of matter; solid, liquid, and gas. Particles in a solid are tightly bound and basically just vibrate with little movement. They are generally arranged in a regular pattern and retain a fixed volume and shape. Particles in a liquid aren't quite bound as tightly so they are free to slide past one another and do not have a regular pattern. A liquid will assume the shape of the part of the container it is in. The use of the term vapor is a bit elusive since it is somewhat of a intermediary state between a liquid and a gas. So your question of how the particles move is answered in the simplest form by stating their movement speeds up and they become separated by greater distances. The first answer is incorrect in stating matter changes from a liquid to a solid before changing to a vapor then gas. to move from a liquid to a solid the particles of the matter would have to slow down. The application of heat can be directly related to the speed of the particles contained in the matter. The hotter a substance gets, the faster the particles move. The speed of the particles moving around one another increase from one state to the next in the order of, solid-liquid-gas.

Is a hole a fundamental particle in an atom?

No a "hole" is not a particle, in solid state electronics a "hole" is a positively charged virtual charge carrier caused by the absence of an electron (which is a particle) from the atom's valence band. A "hole" has some properties making it act similar to a particle, but it is not one.


Is there a way to stop the particles from moving?

If you mean, thermal motion, if an object is cooled down, the particles will move slower. Absolute zero (no particle movement, and no other kind of internal energy) can be approached, but it can't be reached completely.If you mean, thermal motion, if an object is cooled down, the particles will move slower.

Explanation of vaporization using particle theory?

Vaporization is the transition of matter from solid or liquid to gas. Vaporization of matter occurs when the molecules have sufficient kinetic energy to overcome molecular cohesion.

Does the movement of particles increase or decrease vaporization?

Increase


What does vaporization?

Vaporization means that the particles eg water molecules must have enough energy to break the liquid particle to particle bonds and form a gas particle. This happens at any temperature but happens for all molecules at the boiling point of the liquid. Some substances do not spontaneously go through a liquid phase but actually form a gas from the solid phase. Solid directly to gas is called sublimation but it is, in effect, a type of vaporization.


Does the movement on particles decrease or increase in vaporization?

The movement of particles increases during vaporization as they gain more energy to overcome intermolecular forces and transition from a condensed phase to a gaseous phase.

How does temperature or heat energy affect particle movement?

Temperature is a measure of particle movement. An increase of temperature, in a sense is an increase of the average movement of the particles within the substance, to include vibrations, spins, and lateral movement.


When vaporization happens on and below the surface of a liquid?

Boiling takes place and it leads to the movement of hot water upwards and the movement of cold water downwards.
