No, atoms are not closest together in gases; in fact, they are farthest apart compared to solids and liquids. In gases, atoms or molecules move freely and are spaced widely apart, resulting in low density. In solids, atoms are tightly packed in a fixed structure, while in liquids, they are closer together than in gases but still have some mobility.
What else can I help you with?
Atoms combine when what happens?
uncomplete atoms attract each other sort of like a magnet. when they 'stick' together they are then called a molecule but there are atoms that do not form together because they are complete. they are called Noble Gases.
What gases contain molecules?
Absolutely every gas that either is not an element or is bunched together [for example, O2 (Normal Oxygen, 2 Oxygen Atoms) O3 (Ozone, 3 Oxygen Atoms) or CO2 (One Carbon atom, two Oxygen atoms)] ~me
Are the only gases the diatomic gases and the noble gases?
No - there are many gases that contain more than one or two atoms. Some examples are: Carbon Dioxide: 3 atoms Acetylene: 4 atoms Methane: 5 atoms Ethylene: 6 atoms . . . and the list goes on. It is true though that as the more atoms a molecule consists of, the less likely it is to be a gas at a temperature we are familiar with. Pretty nearly all molecules can be gases if the pressure is low enough and the temperature is high enough (unless they decompose before they can be heated enough to make their vapor pressure exceed the ambient pressure).
Which Gas rises fast when released?
Solids and liquids are composed of atoms or molecules that are held together by various kinds of chemical bonds, whereas gases are composed of independently moving particles that are not held together, therefore they are free to expand.
What gases are not greenhouse gas?
Greenhouse gases must have three atoms, so gases like hydrogen (H2) and Oxygen (O2) are not greenhouse gases.
State of matter that bonds keep together atoms?
The state of matter that keeps atoms together is solid. Liquids and gases allow atoms to break apart from each other.
Are atoms considered gases or solids?
Neither. Atoms are the building blocks that when put together become solids, liquids or gasses.

What are the differences between monatomic and diatomic ideal gases?
Monatomic ideal gases consist of single atoms, while diatomic ideal gases consist of molecules with two atoms bonded together. Diatomic gases have higher heat capacities and are more complex in terms of their behavior compared to monatomic gases.
Do sound waves go faster in solids liquids or gases?
solids because the atoms are closer together
What are the differences between solids and liquids and gases?
the differences in these three items is that solid atoms are tightly compacted together liquid atoms are freely put move at a slow rate, then the gases atoms a freely just like the liquid atoms but the gases atoms move at a faster rate
What do the words atoms molecules and particles mean in a discussion of gases?
Atoms are the smallest unit of a single element. Molecules are clusters of atoms bound together, like O2 (oxygen) or NO2 (Nitrous Oxide). Particles are still small, but large enough to reflect light, and usually made of lots of molecules.
What is the name of chemical compound of H2?
H2 Hydrogen. All gases , except the monatomic, Noble Gases, exist as polyatomic molecules. H2 is two atoms of hydrogen O2 is two atoms of oxygen O3 is three atoms of oxygen (ozone) N2 is two atoms nitrogen Is the normal physico/chemical state these gases are found . The Noble Gases , helium, neon, etc., existr in their normal state as SINGLE atoms, hence 'monatomic'.
Are the atoms in liquid far apart?
In liquids, the atoms are closer together compared to gases but farther apart compared to solids. The atoms can move freely past each other in a liquid state, which allows liquids to flow and take the shape of their container.
What gases contain molecules?
Absolutely every gas that either is not an element or is bunched together [for example, O2 (Normal Oxygen, 2 Oxygen Atoms) O3 (Ozone, 3 Oxygen Atoms) or CO2 (One Carbon atom, two Oxygen atoms)] ~me
Does atoms and molecules of gases and liquids are heated they sink?
after atoms and molecules of gases and liquids are heated, they sink?
