    When water is boiling the particles in the liquid are not expanding. This also applies for other liquids. Particles do not expand, it is only the volume they take up that expands. When water is boiling, the particles are rather escaping the liquid phase by undergoing a phase change which forms the particles into the gaseous phase.
