Substance a and b are chemically exactly the same. the molecules in substance a move much faster and are less ordered than the molecules in substance b, which vibrate slowly and are arranged in an fixed, orderly, regular array. which statement could be true?
substance a is a liquid, while substance b is a liquid or gas.
substance a is a solid, while substance b is a liquid or gas.
substance a is a liquid or gas, while substance b is a solid.
substance a is a liquid or gas, while substance b is a gas.

Substance A is a liquid or gas, while substance B is a solid.

C

Explanation

The real world is made up of matters which can be classified into four types based on their condensed state. They are solid, liquid, gas and plasma.

Basically the matter is classified as solid, liquid and gases only.

Solid are the substance which have orderly arranged atoms and the most condensed state, the molecules vibrate very slowly in a solid molecule.

So this is matching with the properties given for Substance B.

The properties of other substance A is stated as less ordered and more vibrational frequency or we can say that molecules in substance A can travel faster than the molecules of substance B.

This can possible only when the substance A is either liquid or gas.

Because liquid or gas molecules have loosely arranged atoms compared to solid and they are the ones whose molecules can run faster compared to solid.

So substance A can be a gas or a liquid, while substance B is a solid.

the transfer of heat by electromagnetic radiation is called thermal radiation . it is usually carried out by electromagnetic waves in an energy range just below the visible spectrum, which is the infrared range.

so the answer would be radiation.
