When a substance is heated, the molecules gain kinetic energy and become excited. This means that molecules in motion gain velocity and further excite neighboring molecules. These molecules are moving with greater velocity and force then they were initially, and therefore have a tendency to "escape" from their original volume, thus increasing the space they take up. If the space is finite (for example, in a closed container) the pressure will increase rather than the volume.
What else can I help you with?
When air is heated?
Correct answer= it become "expand"
What materials expand the most when heated?
Materials that tend to expand the most when heated include gases like air, and some metals like aluminum and copper. These materials have higher coefficients of thermal expansion compared to others, causing them to expand significantly when heated.
Why an inflated balloon is heated why it bursts?
the heat caused the air inside to expand.
When air is heated the gases speed up and?
expand, causing the air to become less dense and rise.
When air is heated what Will most likely happen?
When air is heated, it will expand and become less dense. This causes it to rise, creating convection currents. As the heated air rises, cooler air will flow in to replace it, leading to changes in temperature and pressure in the surrounding environment.
What happends to air when its heated?
In accordance with Boyle's Law, if the volume of the air is restricted, the pressure will increase. If there is no volume restriction, the air will expand.
When air is heated gases do what?
its pressure will increase if it is placed in a fixed container, or it will expand if it is free to do so
Oil expand or contract when heated?
Oil does expand when heated and contracts when cooled.
How much does air expand when heated?
it depends on how much it is heated for example when lightning is released it expands the air by thousands of degrees by heat of it.and there is a big banging sound known as thunder
Does Air expand when its is heated?
Yes, when air is heated, it expands because the particles gain energy and move farther apart, increasing its volume. This expansion causes the air to become less dense and rise.
Does warm air take up more space?
yes, as the particles of air are heated, it moves more rapidly, which causes it to expand
How do molecules in a hot air balloon act when heated?
When the air is heater, the molecules move faster and expand to fill the volume of the container.
