If you could please help me with this question I would greatly appreciate it! Thanks so much!!!

In a sample of matter (of any state solid liquid or gas), all the particles are moving at the exact
same speed.
True
False
Transcribed Image Text:In a sample of matter (of any state solid liquid or gas), all the particles are moving at the exact same speed. True False
Some particles are able to break free of the liquid phase and go into the gas phase because
their kinetic energy overcomes the intermolecular attractions
the kinetic energy of faster particles and kinetic energy of slower particles cancel each other out
intermolecular force attractions do not affect gas molecules
