An analogy makes a comparison between objects based on their similar qualities. Cassidy wanted to create an analogy for the motion of atoms in solids, liquids, and gases, so she compared them to marbles in a tray.

A
A solid is like the tray being shaken and the marbles moving around it, and a liquid is like the tray being shaken slowly and all the marbles moving in their positions.
B
A solid is like the tray being shaken slowly and all the marbles moving in their positions, a liquid is like the tray being shaken and the marbles moving around it, and a gas is like the tray being shaken hard and the marbles moving vigorously around it.
C
A gas is like the tray being shaken slowly and all the marbles moving in their positions, and a solid is like the tray being shaken hard and the marbles moving vigorously around it.
D
A liquid is like the tray being shaken hard and the marbles moving vigorously around it, and a gas is like the tray being shaken slowly and all the marbles moving in their positions.

Which statement best describes the atoms of the gas neon?

A
They slide past each other.
B
They move freely in all directions.
C
They vibrate in place.
D
They are packed closely together.

Density involves the amount of a material in a certain volume. When a material changes phases, it changes in density in a predictable way as the amount of material stays the same but the molecules get farther apart or closer together. Water has solid and liquid states that do not follow these predictions of density in the phases of matter.

A
The solid state is the most dense, followed by the liquid state, then the gas state.
B
The solid state is more dense than the liquid state.
C
The liquid state is more dense than the solid state.
D
The gas state is the most dense, followed by the liquid state, then the solid state.
