How can you tell that the substance in the container is a gas?

It expands to fill the container.


How can you tell the substance in the container is a gas?

It expands to fill the container.


What is the substance called that occupies the entire volume of the container?

This would be a gas. A gas expands to fill the space of the container that contains it.


Does density change when the size of an object changes?

No. A drop of water and a tankerful of it have the same density. But these are two different masses of the same material. If you have, say a piece of metal and heat it up so that it expands, and there is still the same amount of substance, then the density decreases as the substance expands. Water expands as it freezes; that is why ice floats in water.


When volume is increased does pressure increase or decrease?

Neither. Volume is independent of mass. Effectively, if you increase the volume of a substance you are moving the particles that comprise that substance apart. Eventually, you would have a gas which expands to fill the volume of its container.

When a substance is heated it can result to a rise in?

Electricity and volume This happens because when the mass expands over heat the density expands which in turn makes the volume expand


When a gas expands whether its density increases or decreases?

the density decreases because the particles spread out and so less particles occupy the same amount of area meaning the substance is less dense.


What happens to gas if it is not in a container?

It expands (escapes).


What happens to an object's density when it heats up and expands?

The density decreases.


What substance expands when frozen?
