a. In comparing the relative distances among the molecules in each state of matter, what would be the rank of these states in terms of increasing distance between particles? b. How would you describe the characteristic movement of the particles of a gas? A liquid? A solid? c. How would you describe the relative arrangement of molecules of each state of matter?
