Question

1)

Consider the four phases of matter. How do the characteristics of a liquid differ from a solid? All BUT ONE applies.
A) Energy has increased.
B) Temperature has increased..
C) Molecules begin to vibrate.
D) Intermolecular attraction decreased.

2)
The fourth state of matter, plasma, exists when what happens?
A) The atoms in a gas become ionized.
B) The atoms in a gas undergo nuclear fission.
C) The atoms in a gas lose all intermolecular attraction for one another.
D) When electromagnetic forces causes the atoms to stop colliding with one another.

Answer 1

1) A, C, and D

2) D

Step-by-step explanation:

1) In ice, for instance, the temperature decreases to become a solid, so B does not apply.

2) In most plasma's, the atoms don't collide into each other.

Answer 2

Answer:1 C

2 A

Step-by-step explanation:

Liquids tend to gain more kinetic energy than solids. Energy is related with temperature. As the kinetic energy is increased so also is the temperature. This increase in temperature reduces the intermolecular attraction in solids.

Plasma comprise of positively Charged and negatively charged particles and occurs when the atoms in a gas becomes ionized.
