In a solid, the molecules are very close and compact with very no space to move around. In a liquid the molecules have little space to move around, and in a gas, the molecules are very spaced out. The gas molecules move around a lot because they have so much space between and around them. Hope this helped..

What does a Graph of melting point and freezing point of naphthalene look like?

The graph of the melting point and freezing point of naphthalene would show a plateau at the melting point, as the solid naphthalene transitions into the liquid phase, and a plateau at the freezing point, as the liquid naphthalene transitions back into the solid phase. The melting point and freezing point of naphthalene are the same at approximately 80 degrees Celsius.


What does the Earth's interior look like?

The Earth's interior consists of several layers, including the solid inner core, liquid outer core, mantle, and crust. The inner core is solid iron and nickel, while the outer core is liquid molten metal. The mantle is made up of solid and molten rock, and the crust is the Earth's outermost layer, varying in thickness beneath the continents and oceans.


How can water infiltrate the ground if it is solid?

Water can infiltrate the ground even if it is solid through processes like melting or sublimation. In colder regions, solid water (ice) can melt due to temperature changes, allowing it to seep into the ground. Sublimation, where solid water directly transitions into vapor, can also facilitate infiltration when the vapor condenses back into liquid upon contact with the ground.


At room temperature what does Bromine look like?

Bromine is a reddish-brown liquid at room temperature. It is highly volatile, with a strong, sharp odor.


What shape is sodium hydroxide?

Sodium hydroxide has no molecular formula since it is an ionic compound which makes a lattice. NaOH is actually its empirical formula. In this lattice, every sodium ion is surrounded with hydroxyl ions and vice versa.

Why is sand a solid and not liquid?

because it is in small particles which look like a liquid but is a very small. Sand is just small bits of solid stuff which solid so pretty much yeah. Okay i'm bored now bye.


Is sand a solid and why?

Yes, because sand is just a bunch of particles mixed together. A liquid, gas, or solid will appear to be so down to a molecular level. If you look at water through a microscope, it will look like water until you can distinguish individual molecules. Even then, we will know we are looking at a single water molecule, which has predictable properties regarding change of state. It is still a liquid under normal temps. Sand will look solid, no matter how close you look at it, down to a molecular level. A beach is just a bunch of solid particles piles together. Sand can also be melted and turned into liquid, like making glass. This requires heat and pressure. In our normal atmosphere, quartz is in its solid form. Thus the REAL answer is that all matter in the universe can be wither solid, liquid, gas, or plasma.

Is gak a solid or liquid and why?

Gak is a liquid and solid. In the school science lab ,I did an experiment and made gak out of borax, water, saturated water, Elmer's White glue, and food coloring.If you mush it feels like liquid and if you leave it somewhere it will look like it is frozen and it will look like it is a solid.


Is Silly Putty a solid or liquid?

Oh, dude, Silly Putty is like a super chill substance that can't make up its mind. Technically, it's a non-Newtonian fluid, so it flows like a liquid over time but can also bounce like a solid. So, yeah, it's both solid and liquid, depending on how you look at it.
