Question
in which state of matter has the least kinetic energy?
a gas
b liquid
c plasma
d solid
Brief Explanations
Kinetic energy is related to the movement of particles. In solids, particles are closely packed and have limited movement (vibrate in fixed positions). In liquids, particles have more movement than solids. In gases and plasmas, particles have even more freedom of movement (gases move freely in all directions, plasmas are like highly - energized gases). So, solids have the least kinetic energy among the states of matter.
