The application of heat energy usually causes matter to expand, not contract.
There one or two exceptions, eg. water (as ice) contracts as you melt the ice.

What makes matter change forms?
Any type of reaction, really. You could add heat or remove heat (thermal energy) to cause the matter to change phase. Also pressure can compress the matter into a new form.
What happens if the subject matter of a contract is destroyed?
The contract is void.
What does Lower temperatures cause rocks to?

If heat is removed from a substance how will atoms behave?
Kinetic theory of matter: All matter is made up of atoms and molecules that are constantly moving. When heat is added to a substance, the molecules and atoms vibrate faster. As atoms vibrate faster, the space between atoms increases. ... They contract when they lose their heat.
Do light rays through matter cause sound?
They could, if they were intense enough to heat the material.
