The particles spread apart, making the substance less dense. The particles also spread apart to fill more space. Also, the movement of said particles become more active.

What happens to gas particles?

By definition, a particle is a solid, so your question does not make sense.


What are solid particles in gas called?

Solid particles in gas are called aerosols. These are tiny solid or liquid particles suspended in a gas, such as dust, smoke, or mist.


Do gas particles move slower than solid particles?

No. Gas particles move much faster than solid particles.


What happens when particles evaporate?

If you are talking about water particles, then they turn into a gas which evaporation occurs at around 70 degrees. This is the step before condensation which is when water particles after they have turned into a gas, collect on the surface of an object.


What do particles of a solid do when the solid sublimes?

Sublimation is the conversion from solid directly to gas, so the particles of a solid that sublimes would change into a gas.


What happens when solid turns into gas?

The gas can't generally turn straight into a solid, it has to change into a liquid and then a solid. When a gas turns into a liquid, the particles go closer together into groups and condensate. When the liquid turns into a solid, the particles all compress into a small space thus making a solid object.-----------------------------------------------------------------------But the phenomenon of change from a gas to a solid is also very known and is called deposition.


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.


How does gas turns to solid?

Gas can be turned into solid by sublimation process.


What happens to kenitic energy of the particles when a solid changes to a gas?

Kinetic energy is possessed by virtue of the motion of particles. In solids, particles are tightly packed, so the can not move easily(hence the rigidity). In gases, particles are loosely packed, so they can move more freely(hence its ability to flow). Therefore, KE of particles increases when a solid changes to gas.


What happens to the motion of particles in a solid and liquid and gas?

In a solid the particles are packed tightly together in a more raged formation . in a liquid the particles move passing each other in a gas the particles move freely in the space they have


In a table are the particles a gas liquid or a solid?

solid


Are the particles in a solid moving or still?

Technically, all particles in a Solid, Liquid, or Gas are moving. But a gas moves the fastest, liquid fast, but not as fast as gas, and solid moves the slowest.
