Basically, a solid is quite stationary. It doesn't move very much. Liquids have more energy, meaning that the particles move a lot freer. In a gas the particles are a lot further apart, meaning that they have a LOT more space to move.
Solids can be made to move faster if you give it enough energy (ie, heat). The atoms then start vibrating faster, making spaces between the atoms. This is what happens (basically) when you melt something.
As the molecules in a body move with increased speed, i.e. increasing kinetic energy, it is possible that the body will change from the solid phase to the liquid phase, or the liquid phase to the gas phase, and in some cases from the solid directly to the gas phase.
When the molecules in a body move with increased speed, it is possible for the body to undergo changes in state based on the amount of energy present. As molecules move faster, they may transition from a solid to a liquid, and then from a liquid to a gas due to the increase in kinetic energy. This change in state is a result of the balance between intermolecular forces and thermal energy affecting the arrangement of particles in the substance.
In a solid, thermal expansion occurs as the temperature increases, causing the atoms or molecules to vibrate more, increasing the average distance between them. As a result, the solid expands in all directions. In a gas, thermal expansion occurs as the temperature increases, causing the gas molecules to move faster and spread out, increasing the volume of the gas.
Yes, molecules in the gas phase typically move faster than in the liquid phase because gas molecules have more kinetic energy compared to liquid molecules due to the higher temperatures in the gas phase. Additionally, there is more space between gas molecules, allowing them to move more freely and at higher speeds compared to the liquid phase where molecules are more closely packed.
Molecules in the gas state move much faster than their liquid or solid states. Depending on the temperature and pressure, molecules can exist in three states: gas, liquid, or solid. At high temperatures and low pressures, the gas state is favored. When the molecule is in the gas state, it actually hits other molecules and bounces in random directions. A molecule moving as a gas is like a weightless baseball hit inside a big empty room in outer space. The baseball bounces everywhere, and it moves very fast. In a gas, every time the molecule hits another molecule, it also bounces like the baseball. In comparison, molecules in their liquid state can move, but they move much slower, because but they do not separate from each other. The movement of a liquid molecule is like you moving in a room packed with people. You can move, but you are always in contact with someone. Even slower are molecules in their solid state. In fact, they do not move much at all. This time imagine that you are in a packed room, but now you are all sitting in connected chairs. You can wiggle your head, arms and legs, but you cannot leave the chair. Since you cannot leave the chair, and because the chairs are stuck together, you can not move your entire body to another place in the room. Using this analogy, molecules in the solid state are the slowest.
Molecules move fastest in a gas, then in a liquid, and slowest in a solid. In a gas, molecules have high kinetic energy and move freely, while in a liquid, molecules can slide past each other but are still somewhat restricted. In a solid, molecules have the least amount of kinetic energy and vibrate in fixed positions.
Gas molecules are spread apart farther than solid molecules. They also have more energy, making them move faster
Gas molecules a spread out father than a soilid. This is beacuase gas molecules have nmore energy which makes them move much faster than the molecules in a solid.
gas
It becomes a liquid. solid, liquid, and gas are relative terms defining the movement of molecules, solid moves slow, liquid faster, and gas the fastest. molecules move constantly.
Molecules actually move faster in liquid because they have more space between them to move about. That's why liquid can flow, and a solid cannot. =)
During a phase change from liquid to gas, molecules gain energy to overcome the intermolecular forces holding them together in the liquid state. As they absorb energy, molecules start to move faster and break free from their fixed positions, eventually leading to a transition to the less dense gas phase.
Solid. The molecules are compacted together and vibrate at high speeds. Liquid. The molecules are still close together but are not fixed and can roll around each other. they spread to take the shape of the container. the molecules move at even higher speeds than solid. Gas. The molecules are far away from each other and move even faster than water Molecules. the spread out or shrink inward to meet the shape of the container.
No. Gas particles move much faster than solid particles.
As the molecules in a body move with increased speed, i.e. increasing kinetic energy, it is possible that the body will change from the solid phase to the liquid phase, or the liquid phase to the gas phase, and in some cases from the solid directly to the gas phase.
When the liquid molecules are heated, they move faster so the liquid boils and some molecules becomes gas molecules. When the liquid molecules are heated, they move faster so the liquid boils and some molecules becomes gas molecules.
Move a lot faster then liquids and solids.
