Answer: The author used the word "conversely" because the first statement he made is in CONTRAST to the second statement he made.
Explanation:
Matter is made up of atoms or molecules that are in constant motion. The motion of these tiny particles ( molecules) gives the object energy. The movement of these molecules depends on the state of matter which includes
--> GASEOUS STATE: Here, the particles are completely free to move and are always in motion.
--> LIQUID STATE: particles in this state slide by one another and are always in motion.
--> SOLID STATE: particles in this state are held tightly together but are always in motion.
Also, the molecules in motion are greatly affected by temperature changes. Increase in temperature will cause the particles in the liquid to move faster. Such is seen when soup is heated, the molecules travel faster than before. But the OPPOSITE is seen in an ice cube. This is because the ice cube is in solid state and of a lower temperature.
he is a good scientist because he postulated that chemical reactions resulted in the rearrangement of the reacting atoms
Aluminum! hope this helps
