What model best describes the particles of a solid and their motion?
I would describe it as this: All of the particles are tightly packed together with almost no spaces between them. Their motion is very limited, unlike that of a gas where the particles are spaced further apart and they are free to move around more.
Which of the subatomic particles has a negative charge is found outside of the nucleus and has almost no mass?
THe electron!
Which particles account for most of the atoms mass?
Physics has not managed to discover a particle that accounts for mass
How does gas different from liquid?
A gas is different because the particles are moving at a much higher rate than the ones in a liquid. Liquid particles are able to slide past each other while gas particles move around with ALMOST no attraction whatsoever.
Are there forces of attraction between the particles in a gas?
No they dont because the kinetic theory of gases made us know that the intermolecular forces between them are weak and they are independent. They dont tend to attract because of the level of disorderliness at increase in temperature and pressure.
What kinds of key attractions does Mercury have?
Mercury is a barren planet with almost no atmosphere and extreme temperatures. It is not clear that there are any attractions!
How many positions are there in billiards?
In theory there an almost infinite number of possible positions.
The difference between Michael Jordan and kareem Abdul jabber different?
Complete different positions.. It's almost like saying, what's the difference between a Quarterback and a Free Safety.

How are particles in solids and liquids organized?
almost together
What happens to the particles in a metal when the metal is heated?
When a metal bar is heated....the particles in the area of the metal bar that is hot start vibrating.. knocking into each other and passing the heat energy on to cooler particles. The cooler end that isn't heated still has a rise in temperature just not as much as the heated area because the heat has almost been diluted.
Why do particles move more freely in a gas than in a liquid?
The molecules of the gas are spread further apart. The forces of attraction between them is very less, almost negligible.
What elementary particles have a charge of -1 and mass that is almost zero?
Electrons.
What is negatively charged particles of atoms with almost no mass called?
An Electron
Which particles account for almost all the mass of an atom?
Neutrons and protons.
Which of these positions will almost always have a person with a background in banking and finace appointed to it?
Secretary of Treasury
What is a subatomic particles with almost no mass?
The electron is the lightest particle in the atom.
