Question

when you boil a substance, the particles move select one and get select one. when you freeze a substance, the particle move select one and get select one.

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

To solve this, we recall the particle behavior during boiling and freezing:

  • Boiling: When a substance boils (liquid to gas), thermal energy is added. Particles gain kinetic energy, so they move faster and the space between them (distance) larger (as gas has more spread - out particles than liquid).
  • Freezing: When a substance freezes (liquid to solid), thermal energy is removed. Particles lose kinetic energy, so they move slower and the space between them (distance) smaller (as solid particles are more closely packed than liquid).

For the first "Select One" (boiling - particle movement): Faster.
For the second "Select One" (boiling - particle distance): Larger.
For the third "Select One" (freezing - particle movement): Slower.
For the fourth "Select One" (freezing - particle distance): Smaller.

Answer:

When you boil a substance, the particles move $\boldsymbol{\text{faster}}$ and get $\boldsymbol{\text{larger}}$ (in distance between them). When you freeze a substance, the particles move $\boldsymbol{\text{slower}}$ and get $\boldsymbol{\text{smaller}}$ (in distance between them).

(If the "Select One" options for movement are like "faster", "slower" and for distance are like "larger", "smaller" (or similar terms like "farther apart", "closer together"), the answers align with the particle theory of matter: boiling (liquid → gas) increases particle motion and separation; freezing (liquid → solid) decreases motion and separation.)
