When air warms the molecules on average move more quickly.
If the volume occupied remains the same then the average distance apart remains the same, if the pressure remains the same the air will expand and this means that the air molecules will get farther apart.

What happens to the distance between molecules as the temperature increases?
Temperature is an indirect measurement of a system's molecule's average kinetic energy (KE). As the temperature of a system increases, so does the KE of the molecules. This causes the molecules to move farther apart. You can see this most easily in an old (not digital) thermometer.
What happens as you move from the troposphere to the stratosphere?
the air pressure changes because gas paticles are farther apart and air pressure decreases
What happens when moist air rises?
* which of the foolowing occurs when a mass of air rises into the atmosphere? A) it becomes warmer because the particles move closer together B) it becomes cooler because the particles move closer together C) it becomes cooler because the particles move farther apart D) it becomes warmer beaouse the particles move farther apart please help and thank you :)
What happens when two plates move apart from each other?
what happends when to plates move apart they make volcanos
What happens as the molecules in a liquid move around?
the molecules will go slowly around in the glass
What happens when particles of a material move farther?
When particles of a material move farther apart, it explodes.
Does water lose its polarity when frozen?
No, the molecules move farther apart
Why matters expand when heated?
Matter expands when heated, because molecules move farther apart.
When water molecules heat up and turn to steam the molecules begin to move?
When water molecules are heated and turned into steam they move faster causing more collisions. They also move farther apart.
What happens to air molecules when air gets hot?
The air molecules move farther apart from each other, therefore making it less dense. That's why hot air moves above cool air.
What four properties does matter have?
Matter's property depends on how it's molecules are interacting(if they move,or not).The four properties of matter are solid,liquid,gas,and plasma.A solid matter's molecules don't move apart,yet the other three do.Liquid molecules do move apart ,but not by much.Gas molecules will move apart as far as they can.Plasma takes it even farther,the electrons in it even move apart from the rest of the molecule.
Will molecules go faster and farther when liquid turns to gas?
no, that is the opposite, molecules will move faster and farther apart when the state changes from liquid to gas
What happens when the body heat causes its molecules to vibrate and move farther away?
you sweat
How does heat maike objects expand?
Yes, the more temperature an object has the farther apart the molecules move.
What happens when paticles of a material move farther apart?
the volume of thr material becomes greater
When space objects move farther apart what happens to the gravity between them?
Theoreticly, it gets weaker.
What happens to liquids and gases as they are heated?
The molecules in side move or spread apart
