The number of atoms in a liquid compared to a solid of the same substance remains the same; both states contain the same number of atoms. However, the arrangement and movement of these atoms differ: in solids, atoms are closely packed in a fixed structure, while in liquids, they are more loosely arranged and can move freely. Thus, the difference lies not in the number of atoms but in their spatial arrangement and energy levels.
What else can I help you with?
How is the space of atoms in a solid different from a liquid and a gas?
A solid is more compact.
According to the kinetic-molecular theory the atoms of a gas have more energy than what other state of matter?
The atoms of a gas have more energy than the atoms in a liquid or solid state of matter. In a gas, the atoms are moving around freely and have higher kinetic energy compared to the more constrained motion of atoms in a liquid or solid.
What change occurs when a substance changes phase?
The atoms movement is either more free (liquid to gas) or more restricted (liquid to solid)
How can you compare the movement of the atoms in liquid steel and solid steel?
In liquid steel, the atoms are constantly moving around freely and have higher energy, whereas in solid steel, the atoms are in a fixed position but can still vibrate slightly. This difference in movement leads to the distinct properties of each state: liquid steel is fluid and moldable, while solid steel is rigid and maintains its shape.
What happens to the Kinetic energy of atoms as they move from solid to liquid and gas?
As atoms move from solid to liquid to gas, their kinetic energy increases. In the solid phase, atoms vibrate in fixed positions with low kinetic energy. In the liquid phase, atoms have more freedom to move around and their kinetic energy increases. In the gas phase, atoms have even more kinetic energy as they move freely and rapidly.
Does the atoms inside a liquid have more free energy than the atoms inside of a solid?
It depends on how many atoms or molecules are inside the object.
Are atoms in a solid changed when the solid becomes a liquid?
No, they will vibrate more but they didn't change.
How is the space of atoms in a solid different from a liquid and a gas?
A solid is more compact.
Are the atoms in liquid sulphur the same as in solid sulphur?
Yes, the atoms in liquid sulphur are the same as in solid sulphur. The difference between them lies in the arrangement of the atoms. In a solid, the atoms are packed tightly in a fixed position, while in a liquid, the atoms are more loosely arranged and free to move around.
Solid or liquid argon have greater density?
Matter has more density when solid than when in a liquid state. The atoms are closer together.
What is the only difference between liquid or molten steel and solid steel?
Energy. The atoms in solid steel are moving more slowly than the atoms in liquid steel.
According to the kinetic-molecular theory the atoms of a gas have more energy than what other state of matter?
The atoms of a gas have more energy than the atoms in a liquid or solid state of matter. In a gas, the atoms are moving around freely and have higher kinetic energy compared to the more constrained motion of atoms in a liquid or solid.
Is it true or false that atoms in a gas move more rapidly than atoms in a liquid or a solid do?
True. Atoms in a gas have higher kinetic energy and move more rapidly than atoms in a liquid or solid due to the greater distance between them and the weaker intermolecular forces present in gases. This leads to gases having more freedom of movement compared to the more constrained motion of atoms in liquids and solids.
Can liquid change its shape?
because the atoms in the liquid moves faster than a solid and has more freedom.
Why is liquid silver less dense than solid silver?
The atoms in a solid are arranged in a more orderly structure than in a liquid, resulting in a denser solid. In liquid silver, the atoms have more freedom of movement and are not as closely packed together as in solid silver, leading to a lower density.
How does solid and liquid differ from each other?
solid- atoms more tightly packed specific shape and volume liquid- atoms slightly less tightly packed, no specific shape, specific volume
Are atoms in magma free?
If you mean solid state, or liquid or gas, by are the atoms free, i thinks its more of a halfway in between solid and liquid, if that's not what your looking for, maby some1 else will tell ya
