🗑
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.  
🗑
