States of Matter Quiz

What is the primary difference in particle arrangement between solids and gases?

• Particles in gases are more closely packed than in solids.

• Particles in solids vibrate in fixed positions, while particles in gases move freely.

• Particles in gases have less potential energy than in solids.

• Particles in solids have less kinetic energy than in gases.

What happens to the kinetic energy (KE) and potential energy (PE) of particles during vaporization?

• KE is constant, PE increases

• KE and PE both decrease

• KE and PE both increase

• KE increases, PE decreases
