Two substances that expand when heated are water and mercury. Heating these substances causes their molecules to become more energized and move farther apart, leading to an increase in their volume.
Yes.
Most substances will expand when they are heated. A few substances will contract; one example is water between zero and 4 degrees centigrade.
Yes.
Most substances expand when heated, but water is an exception. Water contracts when heated from 0°C to 4°C before expanding as it heats up further.
No, not all objects expand when heated. Most objects do expand when heated, but there are exceptions such as water between 0°C and 4°C, which contracts when heated. The expansion or contraction of an object when heated depends on its material properties.
they expand
It depends on the solid.
When substances get hot, the molecules gain energy and vibrate more rapidly. This increase in molecular motion causes the substance to expand, changing its physical state (e.g. from solid to liquid or from liquid to gas) if the heating continues. Heating can also break the bonds between molecules, leading to chemical reactions and changes in the substance's properties.
