What is the rank of solids liquids and gases in order of particle speed from the highest speed to the lowest speed?

Gases have the highest particle speed, followed by liquids, and then solids. Gases have particles that are widely spaced and move quickly, while liquids have particles that move more slowly due to stronger intermolecular forces, and solids have the slowest particles due to their fixed positions.


Do solids liquids and gases have different masses?

Yes, solids, liquids, and gases have different masses because their particles are packed differently. In general, solids have the most mass because their particles are closely packed, while gases have the least mass because their particles are spread out. Liquids have a mass between that of solids and gases.
