Do liquids heat up faster than solids?
Yes, liquids heat up faster than solids.
Why do solids heat up faster than liquids or gases?
Since most of the time we are concerned with heat being transferred via conduction, the denser the material, the easier it is to conduct heat. Except for the rare anomaly (think ice vs liquid water) solids are denser than their corresponding liquid forms. All that is a gross simplification of course. Many liquids heat quite a bit better than solids and convection (which can occur in liquids but not solids) can greatly aid in the speed of "heating up", so the generalization that solids heat up faster than liquids is only a tendency rather than a rule.
What effect does a rise in temperature have on the density of solids and liquids?
Generally when heated, the molecules in both solids and liquids vibrate faster and take up more 'space' thus expansion. I'm sure there are a few exceptions like ice, for example.
Where are the particles in the 3 states of matter?
In solids, particles are tightly packed together and have a fixed shape. in liquids, particles are loosely packed together and will form to the shape of their container. both solids and liquids have a fixed volume. But gases do not. Their particles have no forces of attraction so they will spread out to fill their container. this means they have an undefined volume. But atoms in each state are still made up of neutrons and protons inside the nucleus, with electrons orbiting around it.
Which has kinectic energy solids or liquids or gases?
Any of them can have kinetic energy - which is the energy "stored" in movement. So, a solid object moving has kinetic energy. In liquids and gasses, the atoms / molecules that make them up are in constant motion too, so they have a little kinetic energy as a result.
What is made up of particles?
Matter. Everything. Gases,Liquids,Solids and Plasmas.
Compositive is mercury made up of?
it is made up of gas and other things like that and other liquids and solids
In what way are solids different from liquids?
liquids don't have a particular form solids do and take up a shape liquids do not.
Do liquids heat up faster than solids?
Yes, liquids heat up faster than solids.
How Sounds travel through solids liquids and gas?
sound is made up of vibrations, and so you hear sound as the vibrations travel through the particles of solids liquids and gases.
What is process to separate solids from liquids?
pick up the solids with your hands and separate them from the liquids :P
Are substances made of particles?
there are lots of substances made up of particles, solids, liquids, gas etc.
What are 3 things that are made up of matter?
Liquids (water), solids (ice), and gases (steam).
What makes up solids liquids and gases?
Molecules - They are more tightly packed in solids than liquids and gases
What is process to separate solids from solids?
pick up the solids with your hands and separate them from the liquids :P
What are facts about liquids solids and gases?
Five facts: 1. When liquids cool down, they become solids. 2. When gases cool down, they become liquids. 3. When solids heat up, they become liquids. 4. When liquids heat up, they become gases. 5. Some liquids will only freeze in temperatures that can never be recreated by humans.
What is the common denominator in solids liquids and gases?
The common denominator would be the kinetic energy of the particles making up the solids, liquids, and gases.
