The answer is option D "they are vibrating slightly." In ice the molecules are stuck together and shaking like a bunch of little people together trying to keep warm. Also its not option C because they do move all four stages move. (solid, liquid, gas, plasma) Its not option B Liquid molecules are slowly moving around therefore those molecules are moving faster than a solid. Its also not option A because as discussed solids move slower than a liquid.

Hope this helps!

They are vibrating slightly.

It is know to us that when a matter is cooled down, it's motion of molecules decreases relatively. And on the other hand, when a matter is heated, it's molecular motion increases and thus produced Kinetic Energy is converted into heat energy and hence increasing the temperature of the matter. So, when water is cooled and it changes it's state from liquid to ice, it's molecular motion is very slow.

What can occur in physical change ?

Alexandra [31]

Within a physical change, an element can change forms, such as going from solid to a liquid through melting. Color change can also occur during a physical change. Physical changes are very different from chemical changes. In a chemical change the element itself changes into something else within a reaction, such as combustion (burning).

Fed [463]

Answer:

Heating water with an open flame

Explanation:

Remember, we are told in the label that Acetone is a "flammable liquid and vapor." Being flammable means the substance can easily be set on fire, and we would expect an open flame from heating water to trigger an explosion (a disaster) in which the Acetone is set on fire causing life-threatening dangers to the second group of students.
