In solids, molecules have the greatest attractions for one another. That is why molecules in a solid barely move around or switch positions. In gases, the molecules move around quickly and freely, so their attractions are weak. Liquids are in between.

So, to answer: solid.

When butter is heated does it expand or conract?

Butter expands when heated because the heat causes the fat molecules in the butter to move faster and spread out. This increase in kinetic energy results in the butter taking up more space, thus leading to expansion.


When butter melts does it's molecules move faster or slower?

Lets assume the molecules in the liquid have a certain kinetic energy: E = 0.5mv2 If the liquid is heated, more energy is given to the molecules so their kinetic energy is increased. If their kinetic energy is increased, and their mass remains constant, then their velocity must have also increased according to the above equation. Answer: they move faster


Why is it easier to cut with a hot knife rather than a cold one?

Some things, like butter, will be cut easier, because butter will melt while you pass the knife through it.Some things, like butter, will be cut easier, because butter will melt while you pass the knife through it.Some things, like butter, will be cut easier, because butter will melt while you pass the knife through it.Some things, like butter, will be cut easier, because butter will melt while you pass the knife through it.


Does ice float or sink?

Ice floats on water because it is less dense than liquid water. When water freezes, it forms a crystalline structure that spaces the water molecules farther apart, making the ice less dense and causing it to float.


Can THC be extracted by centrifugal force?

Probably not. Centrifugal force can be used to separate large particles and such, but molecules alone typically don't interact in that fashion. Your best bet is to use heat, along with some type of hydrophobic (fatty) substrate onto which it can it hear such as butter or peanut butter.

Yes.


Which has greater weight a kilogram of butter of kilogram of lead what is greater density which has greater volume?

They both weigh the same: 1kg = 1kg. The kg of butter has a greater volume and the kg of lead has a higher density.


Which has the greatest volume a kilogram of butter or a kilogram of lead?

Butter has greater volume than lead because butter has more mass.


What type of material is a butter knife made out of?

Most butter knives are made of some kind of steel.


Is butter a molecular crystal?

Yes, butter is a molecular crystal. It is composed of a crystalline structure made up of molecules such as water, fat, milk proteins, and salt. The molecules are arranged in a repeating pattern that gives butter its solid state at room temperature.


Is peanut butter polar or nonpolar?

nonpolar. The fat molecules in peanut butter are nonpolar, that is why peanut butter doesn't evenly mix with water, a polar substance.


If butter solidifies the process is called?

If butter solidifies, the process is called crystallization. This occurs when the liquid fat molecules in the butter align and form a solid structure, resulting in a firm texture.


What melts easily that is a material?

Butter is a material that melts easily. Butter has a low melting point compared to other materials, which allows it to quickly turn from a solid to a liquid state when exposed to heat.
