<span>Atoms move at different speeds depending on whether they are in liquids or solids </span><span>because the atoms or particles in solids are closely bonded while they are loosely bonded in liquids.
</span><span>
</span><span>
</span><span>The attractive forces between the particles are so high that they remain in fixed positions. The particles, then, cannot slip over the neighbors particles. They can only vibrate. That is why solids have definite form and volume.</span><span />

<span>That the particles in liquids are loosely bonded means that the attractive forces are less compared with solids. Then the partilces can move and pass each other. They are not in fixed arrangements any more. Yet the particles are attracted to each other, so they have definite volume, although they take the form of the vessel, and they can flow.

In the investigation "Comparing the Effects of the Products of Cellular Respiration
Marianna [84]

The solution changed color because the substances are not neutral.

<h3>pH</h3>

Chemical substances have different concentrations of the hydrogen cation, called PH.

The higher the pH, the more basic the substance, and the lower the more acidic.

Bromothymol blue is a pH indicator that changes its color according to the pH of the substance, yellow for acid, blue for basic and green for neutral.

In the case of the reactions in question, we have the release of CO2 (acid) in combustion and in cellular respiration, changing the color of bromothymol blue to yellow.
