Question

Select the correct answer. In which state of matter do molecules have the lowest kinetic energy? A. liquid state B. plasma state C. gaseous state D. solid state

Answer 1

Answer:

D. Solid state

Explanation:

In solid state the particles of  a substance, vibrate in fixed positions though they posses less kinetic energy. This is the reason as to why the particles do not move far apart from each other making the solids remain in fixed shapes unless an extra energy is added.

Answer 2

Answer:

In the solid state.

Explanation:

In this state the particles are united by high forces that maintain those particles at very small distances. Due to this, the movement of the particles is limited to one vibration, without displacement.
