Why do molecules at the surface of a liquid behave differently from molecules in the interior of the liquid?
In the interior the intermolecular forces of attraction is equal in all directions but the molecules at the surface of liquid experiences unequal intermolecular forces of attraction. the molecules at the surface are free so the adsorb liquid or gaseous molecules
How do the molecules of a gas behave?
loose
What is surface tention?
Surface tension is a property of a liquid that causes its surface to behave like an elastic membrane. It is due to the cohesive forces between the liquid molecules which results in the liquid trying to minimize its surface area. This leads to effects like droplets forming or insects being able to walk on water.
Is a liquid a very structured molecule?
Molecules of all compounds are structured.The liquid as a state of matter is not very structured.
How do the molecules behave during each phase?
In the solid phase, molecules are closely packed together in a fixed position, vibrating in place. In the liquid phase, molecules are more loosely packed and have more freedom to move around, sliding past each other. In the gas phase, molecules are far apart and move freely and quickly, colliding with each other and the container walls.

Can you choose some solids that behave as a liquid and explain why they do this?
Can you choose some solids that behave as a liquid and explain why they do this? Is jelly a solid that behaves as a liquid?? and is it because they arent very strong.
What happens to a fluid when it heats?
When the liquid molecules are heated, they move faster so the liquid boils and some molecules becomes gas molecules. When the liquid molecules are heated, they move faster so the liquid boils and some molecules becomes gas molecules.
How do liquid particles behave?
The molecules in a liquid are bound by moderate attractions, neither weak nor strong. So, liquid molecules move around a bit, but they are not as free-flowing as the molecules of a gas. Still, attractions are continually created and broken in a liquid.
What is the difference between the molecules in a hot solid and hot liquid?
The molecules in a solid vibrate in place. The molecules of a liquid are moving about.
Is a liquid a very structured molecule?
Molecules of all compounds are structured.The liquid as a state of matter is not very structured.
What 3 things are found i a liquid?
Molecules, ions, and solvent molecules are typically found in a liquid.
Why is surface tension important in the context of liquid behavior?
Surface tension is important in the context of liquid behavior because it is the force that holds the molecules of a liquid together at the surface, creating a "skin" that allows insects to walk on water and helps liquids form droplets. This property affects how liquids behave and interact with their surroundings.
Why do water molecules cohere to form a liquid?
Water molecules cohere to form a liquid due to hydrogen bonding between the molecules. This hydrogen bonding leads to a net attractive force between the molecules, allowing them to stay close together in a liquid state.
What does movement of molecules in a liquid allow the liquid to do?
Flow
