Sentences with phrase «molecules in a liquid state»

It is the process whereby atoms or molecules in a liquid state (or solid state if the substance sublimes) gain sufficient energy to enter the gaseous state.

Not exact matches

It works by «pumping» atoms or molecules in a gas, liquid, or solid into a more energetic state, usually electrically, chemically, or with another laser.

When a liquid freezes, the molecules tend to settle in the lowest - energy state, and that almost always involves some form of symmetry.

The team report a molecule called lysophosphatidic acid (LPA) changes cells from a solid - like to a liquid - like state, allowing cells to flow between normal tissues in the body.

Sound travels in air like waves in the fluid liquid water of the ocean, the sound will cause a molecule to vibrate more energetically where it is, it then causes its neighbour to vibrate more energetically and itself will go back to ground state, like a mexican wave the energy of the sound is passed along through the volume of air.

Or if the there enough water molecule in droplet the water acts similar to a drop water from dripping facet or pool of water - which a portion of it is evaporating and condensing - but with H20 gas molecules in a gas mixture most of gas molecules are transiting from gas to liquid state within a time frame of something like less than a second.

Molecules in liquid don't have such clean discrete states but they do still interact more strongly at frequencies close to such vibrational states.

Water is by far the most important greenhouse gas, and is the only molecule that is present in the atmosphere in all three states, gas, liquid, and solid.

In doing so they take energy from their immediate surroundings and leave the liquid cooler (the energy is, as you rightly state, now in the form of latent heat; plus the liquid is losing its most energetic molecules which also contributes to coolingIn doing so they take energy from their immediate surroundings and leave the liquid cooler (the energy is, as you rightly state, now in the form of latent heat; plus the liquid is losing its most energetic molecules which also contributes to coolingin the form of latent heat; plus the liquid is losing its most energetic molecules which also contributes to cooling).

Water vapour is a gas whereas water is a liquid and to achieve that change of state a very large quantity of energy gets tied up in the molecules of vapour in latent form which means that it's presence is not reflected in the actual temperature ot the air which carries it.
