Question

In which of the following phases of matter do molecules have the lowest amount of energy?

Answer 1

Answer:

C. Solid

Explanation:

It's most about the kinetic energy, when molecules have the least amount of room to move around, they have the least amount of energy.

For example if you think about gas and how spread out the molecules are in order to evaporate, there it the highest amount of energy there.

Answer 2

Answer: solid

Explanation: This is because they only vibrate in place. Particles in the liquid state move faster than particles in the solid state. Therefore, they have more kinetic energy.
