As the particales in the solid will spread out as heat is added. This is where they become a liquid. For liquid to gas the particales spread again so that they are now a gas.

The particles in a solid are closer together to those in a liquid.

What kind of change happens to water when it is boiled?

physical changeIn gas phase the molecules take more room, move fasterover (1000 times) longer distances before collating to other molecules as compaired to liquid.


Why does liquid water take its shape of the container but an ice cube does not?

Liquid is much more tangible than ice if that's what your asking....


Two reasons to justify water at room temperature is a liquid?

Water at room temperature is a liquid because the intermolecular forces between water molecules are strong enough to keep them close together, allowing them to flow and take the shape of their container. Additionally, the temperature at room temperature is moderate enough to overcome the forces that would cause water to freeze into a solid or evaporate into a gas.


Why did the water molecules inside the can take up more space after boiling took place?

When water boils, its molecules gain energy and move faster, causing them to spread apart. This increased kinetic energy leads to a phase change from liquid to gas, resulting in steam, which occupies significantly more space than liquid water. Consequently, the water molecules inside the can take up more space after boiling due to the expansion of water into vapor.


How long does it take to completely evaporate liquid water?

Numerical figures might vary based on factors like temperature, humidity, and surface area, but typically, it can take around 1-2 hours for a small amount of liquid water to completely evaporate at room temperature.

Why does steam take up more space than liquid water?

Steam takes up more space than liquid water because the molecules of water in steam have higher energy and are further apart from each other compared to when they are in liquid form. This causes steam to have a larger volume and be less dense than liquid water.


Does the process changing molecule of water from liquid to a gas take more energy then ice from a solid to a liquid?

Yes. Changing from liquid to gas is called vaporization, and requires more energy (in water) than to change from solid to liquid, which is called fusion.


What is the difference between liquid and water?

Liquid is a state of matter that can flow and take the shape of its container, while water is a specific chemical compound composed of two hydrogen atoms and one oxygen atom (H2O) that exists as a liquid at room temperature. Water is a type of liquid, but not all liquids are water.


Why does ice float on water despite it is a solid?

Ice floats on water because it is less dense than liquid water. When water freezes, its molecules form a more open crystal lattice structure, causing the ice to take up more space than the liquid water. This lower density allows ice to float on the more dense liquid water.

Why does water take up more space as steam then it does as liquid water?

Sort of, as steam water spreads around more so you could say that water takes up more space as steam.

Why does evaporating take longer when the water is cooler?

The energy of water molecules at low temperature is lower and ity is more difficult to escape from the liquid.


Does hot water freeze more quickly than room temperature?

No, hot water does not freeze more quickly than room temperature water. In fact, hot water takes longer to freeze because it has to cool down to the same temperature as room temperature water before it can start freezing.
