Which state of matter do particles move very slowly?
a solid has a definite shape and volume.its particles are very close together ,and they do not move very fast.
Do the atoms of gasses move faster than the atoms of solids?
In a solid the atoms are tightly packed together and vibrate in place, in a liquid the atoms are loosely packed together and can move past each other, and in a gas the atoms are far apart and move freely and collide frequently.
Describe the molecular distance and motion in the three states of matter?
Molecular distance is the furthest and the motion is the fastest in gases. Molecular distance is closer and have much slower motion in liquids. Molecular distance is closest and the molecules move very very slowly (kind of just shake) in solids.
What happends to the particals of a soild as it melts?
The particles in a solid are very tightly packed together and rigid. The particles in a liquid are less tightly packed together. When a solid like lead is heated, the particles spread out and can move more, making a liquid.
What causes a decrease in heat energy that causes the particles in matter to move more slowly is called?
A decrease in heat energy that causes the particles in matter to move more slowly is called cooling. When heat energy is removed from a substance, the kinetic energy of its particles decreases, leading to slower movement. This process can result in changes of state, such as from gas to liquid or liquid to solid, as the particles come closer together.
Which substance is made of molecules that move slowly and are tightly packed together in a six-sided geometric structure?

Do chemicals packed together tightly react more slowly?
Yes, chemicals packed together tightly can react more slowly because there are fewer spaces for the reacting molecules to move and collide with each other. This can lead to a decrease in the rate of reaction due to reduced chances of successful collisions.
What does sound travel slowly through?
Sound travels slower through materials that are denser and have a higher elasticity. For example, sound travels more slowly through water, glass, and solids compared to air because the particles are more tightly packed together, causing sound waves to move more slowly through them.
Why does a fridge not cool food properly if they are tightly packed together?
Because the cooling depends on the circulation of chilled air over, under, around, and between the various packages, tubs, jugs, cans, and bottles on the shelves. If everything is packed together tightly, then nothing in the middle can cool until everything around it has cooled, and its own heat has conducted outward, slowly, through other stuff.
In which state are the particles closest together?
In the solid state with the highest density.(Some compounds have more 'solid states' e.g. diamond: 3.515 g·cm−3, graphite: 2.267 g·cm−3, and amorphous carbon: 1.8-2.1 g·cm−3, are all different solid states of carbon)
How does sound travels through the 3 states of matter?
Sound travels through solids the fastest, as the particles in solids are closely packed, enabling vibrations to propagate quickly. In liquids, sound travels at a slower speed compared to solids, as the particles are less tightly packed. In gases, sound travels slowest due to the large distance between particles, causing vibrations to propagate more slowly.
Why do solids not undergo diffusion?
Solids don't diffuse easily because they are so tightly packed together. Remember your 2nd grade teacher's drawings of molecules? Solids are very very tightly packed together, liquids have slowly moving molecules, and gasses have free flowing speedy molecules. It also is true that solids don't really conduct electricity well because they can't conduct an electric current. Once it is in water, a solid (like salt) will have its molecules broken apart from the attraction of the water molecules. That solution now carries free flowing ions that can now carry an electric current. All in all, the tightly packed molecules are extremely strong and tightly packed together which makes it almost impossible to do anything, including diffuse. Solids also have a higher boiling apart because SOLIDS ARE VERY STRONG and so are their bonds are too. It takes more energy to break them apart.

As a sample of matter is cooled which property of its particles increases?
As a sample of matter is cooled, the particles' attraction to each other increases. This is because cooling slows down the movement of particles, allowing them to come closer together and form stronger bonds. This increased attraction leads to the particles moving more slowly and closely packed together as the temperature decreases.
