  • Q6
    How does temperature affect the motion of particles in a liquid?
    Higher temperatures increase the speed of the particles.
    Lower temperatures cause particles to move randomly.
    Higher temperatures decrease the speed of the particles.

    Particles in both solid and gas move randomly without any structure.
    Particles in a solid move freely and quickly, while particles in a gas are tightly packed.
    Particles in a solid vibrate in fixed positions, while particles in a gas move freely.
    Particles in a solid spread out and fill the container like gas.

    Gas particles fill the entire volume of their container.
    Gas particles remain in a specific portion of the container.
    Gas particles stay close together and do not move.
    Gas particles form a fixed shape regardless of the container.
