In which state of matter are the molecules of water bunched together?

Water molecules bunch together in the state of a solid.


What state of matter has molecules that are the furthest apart?

Gaseous.


What state of matter has less energy solid or liquid?

Solid. The molecules are not moving as quickly because of it's state of matter. That's why it is a solid.


Substances expand when heated because the molecules?

According to the particle theory, particles move faster and further apart when exposed to higher temperatures. When a substance is heated, its particles acquire thermal energy. These energetic particles--which are constantly vibrating, even in solid form--become very excited, and move around much more, therefore requiring more space. The substance begins to increase in volume, creating larger spaces in between its molecules to accommodate the high-energy movement. This can also cause a change in state. Particles of substance in a solid state: vibrating slightly, densely packed together, little space between molecules. Compare to, Particles of substance in a gaseous state: vibrating excitedly, larger spaces in between molecules, easily compressible (due to empty spaces) If you were to cool a substance in gaseous form, the particles would begin to lose their thermal energy, and eventually change into a liquid state.


What is a state of matter with no definite shape or volume?

Gaseous state.because in a gaseous state there are no intermolecular forces between molecules so they are allowed to move freely

What state of matter has molecules that are vibrating?

The state of matter that has molecules that are vibrating is the liquid state. In liquids, molecules are still close together but have enough energy to move past each other, leading to the vibrational motion.


Which state of matter has molecules vibrating next to each other?

All substances always vibrate and shake next to each other: it's how we perceive temperature. I don't think I quite understand this question. But this may help: If a substance is in solid form, it is the most compact. The molecules are vibrating next to each other very closely. If a substance is in liquid form, it is somewhat compact. Molecules are vibrating next to each other, but not as closely. If a substance is in a gaseous form, it is spread out and crazy: and like every other state of matter, the molecules are vibrating next to each other.


Which state of matter do the molecules move the slowest?

In the solid state, molecules move the slowest. The particles are tightly packed together and have the least amount of energy to move around.


In what state of matter transition do water molecules move the least?

In what state of matter transition do water molecules move the least?


Why do sound waves travel fast in the state of matter of solid?

All the molecules are packed in tight and in an orderly fashion so the sound can travel faster through it. Gases have molecules away from each other so the sound cannot be passed through the vibrating and bouncing molecules so well.


State of matter in which atoms or molecules can move but remain close?

This state of matter is the liquid.


What is the state of matter where the molecules are closest together?

The state of matter where molecules are closest together is the solid state. In solids, molecules are arranged in a highly ordered structure with minimal space between them.


In what state of matter do molecules move fastest?

Molecules do not move faster in different states of matter, they simply have more space to move around in. To make something move faster you need kinetic energy (raise temp).


In which state of matter are the molecules of water bunched together?

Water molecules bunch together in the state of a solid.


The state of matter in which there is some movement of molecules?

In all forms of matter the molecules have some movement, but to varying degrees.


How can you Describe how molecules move in each of the three states of matter?

In the solid state, molecules vibrate in fixed positions. In the liquid state, molecules have more freedom to move around but are still closely packed together. In the gas state, molecules move freely and rapidly, with very weak intermolecular forces.


What state of matter usually consists of molecules rather than atoms?

All classic states of matter can be formed from molecules.
