High school Chem Each phase of matter can be described according to the relative amount of intermolecular forces (IF) holding the molecules together compared to the kinetic energy (KE) of those molecules. Match each of the following phases of matter to the proper description of its intermolecular forces and kinetic energy of molecules. IF KE IF = KE IF

Question

High school Chem Each phase of matter can be described according to the relative amount of intermolecular forces (IF) holding the molecules together compared to the kinetic energy (KE) of those molecules. Match each of the following phases of matter to the proper description of its intermolecular forces and kinetic energy of molecules. IF >> KE IF >= KE IF << KE 1. Solid 2. Liquid 3. Gas Thanks for any help

Think of how well the molecules/atoms move for each phase. The more they move, the greater the kinetic energy
