liquid state
When matter transitions between solid, liquid, and gas states, molecules are either gaining or losing energy to move farther apart or closer together. In a solid, molecules are tightly packed and vibrate in fixed positions. In a liquid, the molecules are more spread out and flow past each other. In a gas, the molecules are far apart and move freely in all directions.
The speed of the molecules is reflected by temperature, but their movement follows the following general pattern: Solids have molecules in a relatively fixed position. They vibrate, but don't really move in relation to each other. If there's a rigidly structured pattern, the solid is a crystal. If not, it's amorphous. Liquid molecules can move in relation to each other, and as such have no definite shape. Surface tension exists, and molecules do have attraction to each other, but they can slide across each other. Gases have no definite shape or volume, so molecules move relatively independent of each other, and bonds between molecules don't exist.
Liquid for sure. As the particles in solid only vibrate and gas particles move about at random. Liquid particles are free to move past each other but, the tend to stick together. Hope that helped.
I am pretty sure it is a solid.
All states of matter have vibrating particles, but solids' particles vibrate only.
Molecules are related to the different states of matter by how they are arranged and how they move. In solids, molecules are tightly packed and vibrate in place. In liquids, molecules are more spread out and can move past each other. In gases, molecules are far apart and move freely. These differences in molecular arrangement and movement determine the state of matter.
All states of matter do not necessarily have molecules. The noble gases consist of individual atoms, and ionic compounds consist of ions, or formula units. All states of matter must contain atoms, molecules, or ions, because matter is made of atoms, molecules, and ions.
Solid: molecules vibrate in place Liquid: molecules move freely but are still close together Gas: molecules spread out and move rapidly Plasma: molecules ionized and move at very high speeds
The state of matter with the lowest degree of freedom between molecules is the solid state. In solids, molecules are tightly packed together and vibrate in fixed positions, restricting their movement compared to gases and liquids. This results in solids having the least freedom of motion among the states of matter.
In the solid state, molecules vibrate in fixed positions. In the liquid state, molecules have more freedom to move around but are still closely packed together. In the gas state, molecules move freely and rapidly, with very weak intermolecular forces.
The three most common phases or states of matter are solid, liquid, and gas (not mentioning plasma, which is a special case). Of the three standard states, the one with the fastest molecular movement is gas, followed by liquid and then solid.
All classic states of matter can be formed from molecules.

Gaseous.

Always moving.
The speed of the molecules is reflected by temperature, but their movement follows the following general pattern: Solids have molecules in a relatively fixed position. They vibrate, but don't really move in relation to each other. If there's a rigidly structured pattern, the solid is a crystal. If not, it's amorphous.
