Do all solids expand by the same amount when heated through same temperature?

no , all solids do not expand by the same amount when heated through same temperature. it depends upon the coefficient of its linear expansion.
We define avergae co-efficient of linear expansion in the temperature range deltaT as α=(1/L)(ΔL/ΔT) where L is initial length of the solid at the temperature T..
It varies from material to material , higher the value of alpha , it expands more..

How does temperature affect the volume of liquid?
Most liquids will expand when heated up.
Do any matter expand when cooled and contract when heated?
Sort of. In the temperature range of 0-4 Degrees Celsius water contracts when heated and expands when cooled. Outside of this temperature range it behaves normally.
Why do solids expand when heated even though their mass does not change?
BECAUSE the moncules are heated they expand because there gay and expand
What expands when it is heated?
Most substances expand when heated.
Does steel expand or compress when heated?
The steel would EXPAND
How does temperature affect the volume of liquid?

What causes a sealed bag of vegetables to expand when it is heated in a microwave?
the temperature of gas changes (APEX) :)
What cause a sealed bag of vegetables to expand when it is heated in a microwave oven?
The temperature of the gas changes.
Oil expand or contract when heated?
Oil does expand when heated and contracts when cooled.
Do any matter expand when cooled and contract when heated?
Sort of. In the temperature range of 0-4 Degrees Celsius water contracts when heated and expands when cooled. Outside of this temperature range it behaves normally.
Is liquid expand when heated?
Yes, in general a liquid will expand when heated. They contract when they are cooled.
Does matter expand or contract when it is heated?
Expand

Why would an engineer need to know the effect of temperature on a solid?
Things expand when heated, and different materials expand differently. An engineer needs to calculate HOW MUCH things expand, and factor this in when designing anything.
How does temperature affects the density?
Temprature affects the volume, since most objects expand when they are heated. And density is mass / volume.
