Question
Which of the following substances that Favors the existence in the solid state?
- High temperature
- Low temperature
- High Activation energy
- Weak force of attraction
Hint:
The particles of all matter get excited when they encounter any form of energy.
The correct answer is: Low temperature
- Low temperature favors the existence of the solid state.
- A solid has the property of particles that hold each other together due to strong intermolecular forces. The intermolecular spaces are very small and the particles are unable to move easily.
- When there is any form of energy, the particles tend to move quickly and apart from each other, and the solid expands. But when there is a low temperature, the heat energy is not present to excite these particles and make them move. They are capable of retaining the shape and structure of the solid molecule.
High temperature causes the particles to vibrate, move quickly, collide with each other and move further apart, thus expanding the shape.
