Molecules
Liquid molecules
Move freely
through their
container. Liquid
molecules are
always vibrating.
Solid molecules
are packed cl0sly
together and are
arranged very
neatly. Also gas
molecules are
always vibrating.
Gas molecules are
never close
together, they are
always moving
very fast and have
lots of space
between them.
