Final answer:
The correct order of water molecules is solid, liquid, and gas.
Step-by-step explanation:
The correct order of water molecules from solid to liquid to gas is
- Solid
- Liquid
- Gas
Water molecules exist as solid (ice), liquid (water), and gas (water vapor) depending on temperature and pressure. At low temperatures, water molecules arrange themselves in a crystalline solid structure (ice). As the temperature increases, the water molecules gain enough energy to break free from the ordered structure and become a liquid. At higher temperatures, water molecules have enough energy to escape the liquid phase and become a gas.
