Question

match the description of kinetic energy with the state of matter that would have that energy. low kinetic energy with compacted particles vibrating in place a. solids b. gases kinetic energy allows particles to slide and move past each other but does not entirely overpower the attraction between particles c. liquids

Explanation:

In solids, particles are closely - packed and have low kinetic energy, vibrating in place. In liquids, particles have enough kinetic energy to slide past each other but intermolecular forces still hold them together. In gases, particles have high kinetic energy and move freely.

Answer:

low kinetic energy with compacted particles vibrating in place - a. solids
kinetic energy allows particles to slide and move past each other but does not entirely overpower the attraction between particles - c. liquids
