i guess the water kind of settles down. when water molecules are hot they tend to move around more, then when the temp. drops the energy level ( molecule movement) slows down... if you freeze water then the molecules start to stop moving and die... meanwhile they were never living. :)

What happens to the atom when a substance changes state from a liquid to a gas?

atoms gain more kinetic energy, so they are moving so rapidly that the intermolecular attractions can no longer hold them in liquid form.


When a substance changes from a liquid to a gas energy is . When a substance changes from a gas to a liquid energy is .?

When a substance changes from a liquid to a gas energy is absorbed. When a substance changes from a gas to a liquid energy is released.


When particles in gas coming off of a pan of boiling water are moving then the particles of the water in the pan?

When the particles in gas coming off a pan of boiling water are moving, it indicates that the water is undergoing a phase change from liquid to gas through evaporation or boiling. The energy from the heat causes the water molecules to gain kinetic energy and escape into the air as vapor. Meanwhile, the particles of the water in the pan are also moving, but their movement is constrained to the liquid state, where they vibrate and move past each other, maintaining their liquid structure. Overall, both the gas and liquid particles possess kinetic energy, but the gas particles are in a more energetic and free-moving state.


Explain what happens to a substance during changes between liquid and gas.?

When a substance changes from liquid to gas, it absorbs heat energy, causing the particles to gain enough energy to break free from their fixed positions and move more freely. This transition is known as vaporization or evaporation. Conversely, when a substance changes from gas to liquid (condensation), it releases heat energy, causing the particles to come closer together and form a liquid.


What happens when a solid a liquid and gas when it changes its state?

When a solid changes to a liquid, it melts and gains more kinetic energy. When a liquid changes to a gas, it evaporates and gains even more kinetic energy. When a solid changes directly to a gas without passing through the liquid state, it is known as sublimation.

What happens to the thermal energy of a gas when it condenses and forms a a liquid?

The energy is released into the air.


What is the relationship between evaporation and the cooling effect it causes in the liquid left behind?

Evaporation is the process in which a liquid turns into a gas. When evaporation occurs, it takes energy from the surrounding liquid, causing it to cool down. This cooling effect happens because the faster-moving molecules escape as gas, leaving behind slower-moving molecules that have lower energy and therefore lower temperature.


What happens when a water changes from a liquid to a gas?

You get steam because the molecules have gained energy in the form of heat and are moving faster and further apart which also increases pressure if you try to contain it. It takes in energy


What happens if we add thermal energy to a liquid?

It will get hotter. Eventually it may evaporate.


What definition occurs when particles in a gas lose enough energy to form a liquid?

The transition from a gas to a liquid phase by losing energy is called condensation. It happens when the thermal energy in the gas decreases to the point where the particles slow down and come together to form a liquid.


What happens to the particles in a liquid when it boils?

The liquid will turn into a gas so the particles are gonna be moving around freely.


What happens when a heated liquid turns into a gas?

Its particles acquire greater kinetic energy.


If a substance besides water is changed from a gas to a liquid and then to a solid what happens to the particles?

When a substance changes from a gas to a liquid to a solid, the particles transition from being far apart and moving freely in a gas to closer together but still able to slide past each other in a liquid, and finally tightly packed in a regular pattern in a solid. The energy of the particles decreases as they transition from gas to liquid to solid.
