Question

What differentiates solid, liquid and gas phases from each other? As part of your response discuss how the energy of attraction between particles compares with their energy of motion (i.e. their kinetic energy, Ek), the distances between particles, their compressibility and their relative viscosities (i.e. resistance to flow).​

Answer 1

Answer:

I hope this helps

Explanation:

Solid = low kinetic energy, close distance between particles, not compresssible, higher flow resistance

Liquid = lower kinetic energy than gases, closer distance between particles than gases, relatively compresssible, high flow resistance than gases

Gas = high kinetic energy, far distance between particles, compresssible, low flow resistance
