Can the atoms and molecules in matter move faster at higher temperature?
yes atoms and molecules do move faster at higher temperatures, at higher temperatures the atoma and molecules absorb more kinetic energy
Are collisions between solvent molecules and solute are more frequent at lower or higher temperatures?
Collisions between solvent molecules and solute are more frequent at higher than lower temperatures.
What will higher temperatures do in a chemical reaction?
Higher temperature is responsible for higher kinetic energy of molecules therefore higher no of effective collisions among the reacting molecules and therefore higher rate of reaction.
What causes these molecules in the plasma membrane of the cell lend stability to the membrane and prevent it from becoming less fluid at low tempatures?
Cholesterol molecules and protein molecules help stabilize the cell membranes. Cholesterol prevents lower temperatures from inhibiting the fluidity of the membrane and prevents higher temperatures from increasing fluidity. Cholesterol is only found in animal cells.
Why do you think some hydrocarbons are gases and others are liquid?
Different hydrocarbons have different boiling points (and melting points) depending on their molecular size: smaller molecules boil at lower temperatures, larger molecules boil at higher temperatures. This fact is used to refine petroleum by fractional distillation. Methane has very small molecules and is a gas. Gasoline, diesel fuel, and kerosene have medium size molecules and are liquids. Asphalt has large molecules and is solid.
Does thunder travel faster in a storm during winter or summer?
Sound travels faster in higher temperatures because in higher temperatures the molecules collide more often. Thus, as the temperature of the medium decrease, the speed of sound decreases. So in the summer.

yes atoms and molecules do move faster at higher temperatures, at higher temperatures the atoma and molecules absorb more kinetic energy
Are collisions between solvent molecules and solute are more frequent at lower or higher temperatures?
Collisions between solvent molecules and solute are more frequent at higher than lower temperatures.
Do molecule move faster at high or low temperatures?
molecules (or atoms) move faster at higher temperatures. higher temperature is a measure of higher kinetic energy.
What will higher temperatures do in a chemical reaction?
Higher temperature is responsible for higher kinetic energy of molecules therefore higher no of effective collisions among the reacting molecules and therefore higher rate of reaction.
Will higher temperatures cause more collisions?
Between gas molecules, yes, it will.
Why can water stay a liquid at much higher temperatures than molecules that are the same size?
the molecules shrink and then grow then explode in your face
What is it about warm gas molecules that give them higher gas pressure than cool gas molecules?
Warmer molecules have more energy, and therefore move faster. Gas molecules will collide with solid objects, these collisions are what cause gas to have a pressure in the first place. Faster molecules mean more energetic collisions, hence a higher pressure on their surroundings. In the case of a sealed vessel, that means that when the temperature rises high enough, the molecules collide with it with enough force to rupture the vessel and burst it open.
If the concentration of reactants is higher?
The rate of the forward reaction will increase if the concentration of the reactants is increased.This is explained by collision theory. When there are more molecules in a given space (a higher concentration) with the same energy, the molecules will collide more frequently, since they will move about randomly and are more likely to hit one another if there are more of them around and less empty space. A reaction requires a collision, so more collisions in a given amount of time will lead to more molecules reacting in that time, giving a higher rate of reaction overall (in the forward direction).
What is energy from high temperatures?
High temperature speeds up movement in the molecules. This means with higher temperature, there is more energy
How do the molecules in an ice cube at 0 degree celsius compare with molecules that are at 20 degree celsius?
At higher temperatures the speed of molecule is higher.
Why does chemical reaction occur quicker at a higher temperature?
when temperature is raised ,the K.E. of molecules increases. Due to which molecules collide rapidly and consequently the rate of reaction increases. In other words: increasing the temperature increases both the rate at which collisions occur (because the molecules are moving around more) and the likelihood that the colliding molecules will react (because they're more likely to have sufficient kinetic energy to overcome the activation energy barrier).
