Question

How would the particles of a solid, liquid, and gas ALL at room temperature compare? *

A.solid particles have lower average kinetic energy
B.the gas particles are larger than both solid and liquid
C.the pas particles are moving the slowest
D.the spacing of the particles is different, but all have the same average kinetic energy


Plz help

Answer 1

A

Step-by-step explanation:

Solid particles only vibrate, so they have very little kinetic energy.

For B, the size of the particles stay the same, just phase/state changes, so not B.

For C, gas particles move the fastest compared to liquid and solid given the same environment.

For D, they don't have the same kinetic energy because solid particles barely move while gas particles keep moving.
