  1. Ok, the answer to this question would be a gas.  The amount of kinetic energy an item has determines on it's state (solid, liquid, or gas).  A solid has the least kinetic energy.  The particles are still moving, but they are moving at a slower rate not noticeable to human eye and no fast enough to get away from each other.  Gases on the other hand have so much kinetic energy that all they do is get away from each other.  That is why gas has no specified volume.  It only fills the space of it's container.  If you are studying this, the next thing you will probably need to know is why everything isn't a solid if it has the same kinetic energy, that is because of molecular bonds, but wait until you get there.


  2. liquid

  3. gas

  4. gas

    just kidding, i don't really know. it's just a guess

    sorry  :)

  5. Sorry- it's gas. Gas particles has enough energy to COMPLETELY overcome attractive forces

    Liquid particles only have enough energy to PARTIALLY overcome attractive forces.

    I guess I should have completely read your question
