Question

In one to sentences, explain a similarity a difference between the particles in liquid water at 100 c degrees and the particles in the steam at 100 c degrees.

Answer 1

A similarity between the particles in liquid water at 100 degrees Celsius and the steam at 100 degrees Celsius is that both exist at the same temperature and pressure; a difference is that the particles in liquid water are more tightly packed and exhibit stronger intermolecular forces, while the particles in steam are more spread out and move freely due to significantly weaker intermolecular interactions.
