| How attracted are the particles in a liquid | In a liquid the particles are somewhat attracted to each other. |
| How attracted are the particles in gasses | The gases have a weak attraction for each other. |
| How do the particles in a solid move? | The particles in a solid are locked in place but they vibrate when the object is heated. |
| How do the particles in a liquid move? | The particles move by vibration. then they slide and move past each other. |
| How do the particles in gasses move? | The particles move by vibrating . after that they move freely at fast speeds and fill the container they are in. |
