Which state of matter has particles that are close together but able to slide past each other?

That would be liquid because in a solid, they are stuck and in a gas, they are far apart but in a liquid the particles move around but are still close together.

Matter is made of tiny particles and these particles are always moving then why do objects such as a table a cup not move?
There are three types of matter; solid matter, liquid matter and gas matter. They are all made up of particles which are the building blocks of matter. Particles in a Gas matter are randomly separated, they are a bit far apart form each other, so they are able to move around efficiently. Particles in liquid matter are less separated from each other, they are closer to each, so there degree of mobility is limited. Particles in solid matter are packed close together and rigity and immobile. A table and a cup and objects of the types are solid matter so they are unable to move around.
How are particles in liquid arranged?
The particles in a liquid have a weak force between them. They are still close together like the particles in a solid, just more loosely connected. They can freely move and slide past each other. =)
What particles act together to make atoms behave as a solids?
Electrons. Mutually repel elections of other atoms when they get close (as they are then much closer to other electrons than other protons)
Are particles stronger when closer?
Particles are neither strong nor weak. The forces between particles may be strong or weak. In this case, the strength (or magnitude) of the force depends on the specific situation. In the case of electrical forces, the force between particles gets stronger when the particles are close together. On the other hand, the "strong force" between bound quarks is independent of the distance.
What state of matter has particles that can flow past each other?
All but solid.
When the potential energy of a material changes what happens to the materials what of matter changes?
In a solid the particles are close together and in fixed positions In a liquid the particles are still really close together but can move around past each other In a gas the particles are free to move and far apart During a state change the particles in the substance will change from being in one of the above to another
The state of matter in which particles are close to each other but do not remain in a fixed position?
A liquid.

In a sloid particles are colse together?
In a solid, the particles are very attracted to each other. They are close together and vibrate in position but don't move past one another. In a liquid, the particles are attracted to each other but not as much as they are in a solid.
Do liquids particles move around so fast that they don't even stay close together?
Liquid particles are loosely packed in the container. They do move around but the particles are bond to each other loosely. So the liquid particles stay together.
Explain Pressure using the particle theory of matter?
Matter is anything that has mass and can take up space.The Particle Theory of Matter:1. Matter is made up of tiny particles (Atoms & Molecules)2. Particles of Matter are in constant motion.3. Particles of Matter are held together by very strong electric forces4. There are empty spaces between the particles of matter that are very large compared to the particles themselves.5. Each substance has unique particles that are different from the particles of other substances6. Temperature affects the speed of the particles. The higher the temperature, the faster the speed of the particles
Is water vapor less dense then water?
There are three states of matter solid, liquid and gas. What determines what state matter is in is how closely the matter's particles are to each other. When water particles are close together, making it dense, it's a solid (ice), when the particles space out a bit, becoming less dense, it becomes a liquid. When the particles space out even more from each other water becomes a gas.
How are the particles in the three states different?
The solid´s particles are tightly packed together but the liquid´s are close together but not taut like the solid´s particles while a gas´s particles are further away from each other and flying around in different directions.
What is the state of matter in which particles are close to each other but do not remain in a fixed position is?
This is the liquid.
Two negatively charged particles are placed close together. Which of the following best describes their interaction?
They will repel each other.
How are particles in liquid arranged?
The particles in a liquid have a weak force between them. They are still close together like the particles in a solid, just more loosely connected. They can freely move and slide past each other. =)
