How does the particles of matter react to temperature?

It is widely accepted within the scientific field that higher levels of heat to cause particles to move more quickly. An air molecule, for example, will be moving much faster at higher temperatures than it would at lower temperatures.


A physical property that tells you how hot or cold matter is?

The physical property that tells you how hot or cold matter is, we call temperature. Temperature consists of random motion on the atomic or molecular scale. Faster moving particles have higher temperatures.


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


Explain Pressure using the particle theory of matter?

Matter is anything that has mass and can take up space.The Particle Theory of Matter:1. Matter is made up of tiny particles (Atoms & Molecules)2. Particles of Matter are in constant motion.3. Particles of Matter are held together by very strong electric forces4. There are empty spaces between the particles of matter that are very large compared to the particles themselves.5. Each substance has unique particles that are different from the particles of other substances6. Temperature affects the speed of the particles. The higher the temperature, the faster the speed of the particles


What state of matter has the most particles?

thwe awnser is plasma


When a liquid is cooled to its freezing point the tiny particles of matter that make up the liquid do what?

move quickly in all directions


How matter moves from solid to liquid to gas?

Matter does not move from a solid, to a liquid, to a gas. It is more proper to say that it changes its state. At different temperatures, all matter changes its state because of the different levels of energy that are required for it to maintain certain states. At the lowest temperatures, matter is a solid. As the temperature is increased, it can change into a liquid, and ultimately a gas. There are even higher states like plasma that involves even higher temperatures, like those found in the sun.


What is determined by the number of particles of a substance in a solution?

Heat is the speed of the particles the higher the speed the higher the heat. Density or state of matter is the distance between the particles the closer the particles the higher the density, the density of the particles determines the state of matter here they are from most dense to least dense; Solid, Liquid, Gas, and Plasma. the temperature (heat) of a substance can also determine the state of matter a substance is with higher heat at lower densities. PS the density/state list does not apply to water. PS Quantum state is not currently an official state yet, it would be the most dense and at the lowest temperature.


What is Phantom Particles and does it disprove the Creation Theory of the Judaeo-Christians?

Phantom particles are particles that come in and out of existence on the quantum level. Space "bubbles" with these particles, but because they are matter/anti-matter pairs and self annihilate quickly they do not count as matter or energy being created. It does have ramifications for the origin of the matter in our universe since the big bang event involved 1,000,000 particles of anti-matter forming for every 100,000,001 particles of matter in a manner that is very similar to how phantom particles form. Still, there are more questions than answers. The creation myth of the Judaic faiths has talking animals in it, thus it refutes itself. It was never any kind of answer at all.


Why do some things change states of matter when exposed to different temperatures?

Matter is composed of tiny particles, which, depending upon the type of matter, are either atoms or molecules. If they stick together firmly, you get a solid; if they have a moderate attachment to each other you get a liquid, and if they move completely independently of each other, you get a gas. There is always some degree of attraction between these particles, for any substance (which derives from electromagnetic forces). There is also always some degree of random thermal motion, whether the particles are just vibrating in place, or moving independently. The higher the temperature, the more random thermal you have. So, when the random thermal motion is strong enough, it can overcome the attraction between particles, and thereby cause a change of state. Or moving toward colder temperatures, the attraction between particles will at some point exceed the random thermal motion, and cause a change of state.


What is the effect of temperature on particles of matter?

Temperature is a measure of the micro-kinetic energy of matter, the vibrational energy of the atoms or molecules making up the matter. The more energetic the vibration the higher the temperature.
