In ______ and ______, the molecules move ______ from place to place and ______ off each other more frequently. In ______ the molecules stay ______ mostly in ______, but ______ with more energy.
Understand the Problem
The question appears to be a fill-in-the-blank exercise related to the movement of molecules in different states of matter. It aims to test knowledge about solids, liquids, and gases by requiring the user to identify terms that correctly complete the statements.
Answer
Gases and liquids, quickly, bounce; solids, place, vibrate.
In gases and liquids, the molecules move quickly from place to place and bounce off each other more frequently. In solids, the molecules stay mostly in place, but vibrate with more energy.
Answer for screen readers
In gases and liquids, the molecules move quickly from place to place and bounce off each other more frequently. In solids, the molecules stay mostly in place, but vibrate with more energy.
More Information
Molecules in gases move rapidly and freely due to high energy, while in liquids they slide past each other. In solids, molecules vibrate in fixed positions.
Tips
A common mistake is confusing the movement patterns between solids, liquids, and gases.
