Solids, liquids, and gases are three common states of matter. in which of these physical states would a water molecule likely have the greatest energy?

in gas form.

Explanation:

As scientist we all know that water exist in three state of matter and they are: solids, liquids and gases

WATER EXISTING AS SOLIDS: water exist as solid when it is frozen, that is, ice. As we all know that solids are closely bonded together. The way they are packed makes them to have definite shape and volume. Solids are resistant to applied force and they have THE SMALLEST AMOUNT OF KINETIC ENERGY.

WATER EXISTING AS LIQUIDS: water can exist as liquids. The existence of water as liquids is commonly find almost everywhere in the word. Water existing as liquids occupy about 70 percent earth surface.

Even though water existing as liquids is free to move about more than water existing as solids. It freedom of movement is less than that of water existing as gas.

WATER EXISTING AS GAS: water exist as gas in form of vapour. Gases are free to move about. And WATER have the HIGHEST ENERGY.

in chemistry, a solution’s concentration is how much of a dissolvable substance, known as a solute, is mixed with another substance, called the solvent. the standard formula is c = m/v, where c is the concentration, m is the mass of the solute dissolved, and v is the total volume
