What happens to molecules when their kinetic energy decreases?
They move slower.

A scientist has a container with a substance inside. At first, the molecules in the substance move away from each other. Later, the molecules move around each other. What change did the scientist observe in the substance?
Before, the substance was a gas. Later, it was a liquid.

Mario is making chocolate. In part of the chocolate-making process, he changed the phase from a liquid to a solid. What happened to the molecules of chocolate when it changed phase?
Before changing phase, the molecules were moving around each other. After changing phase, they were moving in place.

The medicine in the diagram above has molecules that are moving around each other. The doctor needs to slow down the molecules enough to cause a phase change. How will she do this, and how will this affect the medicine? She transfers energy . . .
out of the medicine until it is a solid.

A student left a sealed jar of water outside her home. Water can be a solid, liquid, or gas. When she put it outside, the water was a solid. Twelve hours later, the water had changed phase and was a liquid. What happened to the water molecules?
Before the student left, the molecules were moving in place. After, the molecules were moving around each other.

Scientists digging in a cave found an unknown substance. The scientists found that the substance’s molecules were moving around each other. The scientists increased the speed of the substance’s molecules and caused a phase change. How did the scientists do this, and how did this affect the substance? The scientists transferred energy . . .
into the substance, and the substance changed into a gas.
300
Scientists put a sample of water into a sealed tank. Water can be a solid, liquid, or gas. At first, the water was a liquid. Then, the scientists transferred energy out of the substance, and the water changed phase. What happened to the movement of the water molecules? After the phase change, the water molecules moved . . .
slower and started moving in place.
300
A scientist did a test to compare two substances: substance Q and substance R. At room temperature, both substances are liquid. When the scientist transferred the same amount of energy out of both substances, only one substance changed phase while the other did not. Which substance changed phase, and how did it change?
Substance Q changed phase because the attraction of the molecules was able to overcome their slower movement. Its molecules now move in place.

Lily is doing a science experiment with a substance in a sealed jar. At first, the substance’s molecules are moving around each other. What will happen to Lily’s substance if she transfers energy into the substance and causes a phase change? After the phase change, the substance’s molecules will move . . .
faster, and the substance will be a gas.

A cook had a jar containing a sweet food and a jar containing a sour food. The image above shows the sweet and sour foods. At room temperature, both foods are liquids. The same amount of energy was transferred into both substances. Later, one of the foods had changed phase while the other had not. Which food changed phase, and how did it change?
The sweet food changed because the molecules were able to move fast enough to overcome the attraction between them. Its molecules now move away from each other.

A scientist has two substances that she is testing in her lab: a pink substance and a green substance. At room temperature, both substances are liquids. The scientist transferred the same amount of energy into both substances. She finds only the pink substance changed phase. How is the pink substance different from the green substance? The pink substance has a . . .
weaker attraction between its molecules than the green substance. Its molecules now move away from each other.

The change taught me how much better it is for a newcomer to stay in the country among farmers of his nationality until he has learned a little English. I was safe and felt almost at home on that farm. . . . The situation became very different in a boarding house in Minneapolis for workers in the saw-mills and in the lumber yards. Their work was very heavy, too heavy for a boy of my years. The board was good enough but the rooms poor and not too clean.

Divers found two substances on the bottom of the ocean. At room temperature, both substances are liquid. Scientists then transferred the same amount of energy out of both substances. When a scientist checked again, Substance 1 had changed phase, but Substance 2 had not. How are Substances 1 and 2 different? Substance 1 has a . . .
stronger attraction between its molecules than Substance 2. Its molecules now move in place.
