What else can I help you with?
Do all solids contract then cooled?
No
What happends to solid liquid and gas particales when they get hot and cold?
When particles are heated, they gain energy and move faster, causing solids to melt into liquids and liquids to evaporate into gases. On the other hand, when particles are cooled, they lose energy and move slower, causing gases to condense into liquids and liquids to freeze into solids.
Do liquids and solids diffuse easily?
No, liquids and solids do not diffuse as easily as gases due to their tightly packed molecular structure and lower kinetic energy. Diffusion in liquids is generally slower than in gases, but it can still occur over time. In solids, diffusion is even slower due to the rigid arrangement of molecules.
What happens to the volume of solids liquids and gasses as they warm and cool?
As solids are warmed, they expand and their volume increases. Conversely, as solids cool, they contract and their volume decreases. For liquids, warming causes expansion and an increase in volume, while cooling results in contraction and a decrease in volume. Gases behave differently as they expand when warmed and contract when cooled, with volume being directly proportional to temperature.
Sound travels slower through gases than through liquids and solids because the molecules in gases are?
farther apart, resulting in fewer collisions between molecules. This allows sound waves to move with less resistance and at a slower pace compared to the more densely packed molecules in liquids and solids.
What happens to the volume of solids liquids and gases when they are cool?
they all contract.
Why do solids liquids and gases contract when they are cooled?
To understand you need to know that when you heat something its electrons orbit the nucleus of the atom faster and when you cool it, slower. This means when you heat it up it wobbles all over the place, pushing nearby atoms away, causig expansion, when this is reversed it is exactly the same
If cooled does most solids change into gases?
No, cooling solids typically causes them to contract and become denser, rather than changing into gases. Cooling a substance lowers the kinetic energy of its molecules, which reduces the distance between them and causes the solid to solidify further. However, if the solid sublimes (changes directly from solid to gas), then cooling could cause it to transition into a gas.
Does Ice contract when cooled and expand when heated like most other solids?
yes
Why does metal contract?
Metals, like most solids will contract when cooled. When cooled the atoms or molecules slow down, vibrating less often, causing a smaller average separation between them.
Why does conduction occurs more easily in solids and liquids than in solids?
Conduction is the transfer of heat by direct contact. It is more likely to occur in soilds and liquids because the particles are closer and move slower.
What happens when solids and liquids are heated or cooled?
A solid can change Into a liquid when it is heated Example- when heated solid chocolate, the chocolate changes into a liquid. A liquid Can change into a solid when it is cooled Example - If you leave juice in the freezer , the liquid changes into a solid.
