because they have a larger mass and require a greater energy to move at the same speed.
KE=1/2mv2 where m is mass, v is velocity and KE is kinetic energy
so for the same energy if the mass is doubled then v2 is halved, resulting in a slower speed

∙ 15y agoYes in a way but scientifically solid particles don't move at all gas particles actually move really fast
Wiki User
∙ 14y agoNo, particles move faster due to the increased amount of energy.
Wiki User
∙ 13y agoYes,Heat gives the particles energy to move with so when there is no heat the particles are not being given energy
Wiki User
∙ 11y agoNot necessarily, though if it has the same kinetic energy as a lighter particle, the heavier particle will move more slowly.
Wiki User
∙ 13y agoDifferent speeds.

yes, when particles are cold the move slower. take water and ice for example when the water is warm is is a liquid and it moves all over but when its cold it turns into ice. when its ice the particles don't move.

What occurs when particles in a substance move faster and occupy a larger space without changing to another state of matter?
Thermal expansion
What happens to particles in a substance when its heated or cooled?
In a solid, the particles start to vibrate a lot.In a liquid, the particles begin to move around faster and faster.In a gas, the particles move extremely fast through the air.
When the particles of a substance move about faster they spread out causing the substance to what?
Change states
How do particles of reactants at higher temperatures behave?
Particles move at a faster rate at higher temperatures, than they do at lower temperatures. This is do to the fact that heat is a form of energy. When a particle has more energy is moves faster.
Which best decribes why gel electrophoresis works?
Smaller DNA segments move more easily through the gel. (APEX)
Do Larger particles move faster than smaller ones and thus collide more frequently and more forcefully?
read your book. ;) but no, smaller ones move faster.
Why do smaller particles move faster in water?
Because of the heat in the water.
How particles would move in gel electrophoresis according to size?
During gel electrophoresis, the smaller particles move faster than the larger ones. The end of the gel where the samples are loaded is called the sample origin. Samples move from the origin toward the opposite electrode according to size. At the end of the run, smaller particles will have migrated farther from the origin and the larger ones will be found closer to the origin
Why do the particles move faster in a vacuum?
Particles do not move faster in a vacuum. Particles move faster when the temperature increases.
Do particles move faster as a liquid or a gas?
do particles move faster as a liquid or a gas
When do the particles move faster in a liquid?
particles move faster in a liquid when there's More added to it
How do particles move when they are heated?
Particles move faster when they are heated.
Which gas from among methane and hydrogen will diffuse the fastest and why?
Hydrogen will diffuse faster. It's particles are smaller, so with the same kinetic energy they move faster.
Which diffuse faster heavy particles or light particles?
In general lighter particles should diffuse faster than heavier particles, this could be extrapolated from the relationship to mass, volume, and energy. If we look at particles of all the same, ideal, substance, we would see that an object with less mass would be smaller but would also require less energy to move. That is, at the same temperature a particle of lower mass would move faster than a similar particle of heavier mass. We also see that smaller particles also maximize surface area/mass - this is also conducive to faster diffusion.
What occurs when particles in a substance move faster and occupy a larger space without changing to another state of matter?
Thermal expansion
When the particles is added then the particles move faster or slowly?
slow
Do gas particles move slower than solid particles?
No. Gas particles move much faster than solid particles.
