Question

Changes in the state of matter (solid, liquid, gas) are the result of different energy levels at the molecular level. Look at the graph of the energy required to go from water ice (solid) to water vapor (gas). Describe the energy of the water molecules for each state.

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

The water molecules in a solid are close and tightly fit together, moving at a slow pace. Molecules in the liquid state are more spread out and move a bit faster than the solid state. In the gas state, the molecules are extremely far apart and move at a rapid speed.
