12) which particle has the most energy? a) ice b) water c) steam d) there is no difference in particle energy

Option (C) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Ice is a solid and it is known that particles in a solid are held by strong intermolecular forces of attraction. As a result, they have least kinetic energy.

Due to this solids have a definite shape and volume.

Water is a liquid and it is known that particles in a liquid are held by less strong intermolecular forces of attraction as compared to solids. As a result, particles of a liquid are able to slide past each other due to some kinetic energy.

Hence, liquids have no definite shape but they have fixed volume.

Steam is a gaseous state of a water and it is known that particles of a gas are held by weak intermolecular forces of attraction. Hence, particles of a gas have high kinetic energy and they tend to colloid more rapidly.

As a result, gases do not have definite shape but they occupy whole volume of a container.

Thus, we can conclude that out of the given options steam has the most energy.
