Short Answer:
Particles (atoms and molecules) at high temperature will transfer thermal energy (heat) to near by particles at lower temperature through collisions (bumping into neighboring particles).
Explanation:
We can say particles in one region are hot or cold depending on their temperature and that means they have more kinetic energy (hot) or less kinetic energy (cold) on the average. When we speak of thermal energy, we mean the kinetic energy that particles have as a consequence of their temperature. Particles are constantly moving and colliding with neighboring particles, so it is natural that those with greater kinetic energy will transfer that energy to those with less kinetic energy. That is why a region of a material that is at a higher temperature will cool and the neighboring region at lower temperature will warm. When that happens, we say that heat energy has gone from the warm region to the cool region. In everyday language, heat and heat energy and thermal energy are used to mean the same hing, energy of matter associated with temperature. If you study science, the terminology gets more specific and the term "heat energy" is not so much used.
Comment: Energy can not be made. Energy can be transfered from one location to another and energy can be converted to thermal energy from other forms and back again. We say "energy is conserved" to mean that it changes form but is not created or destroyed.

What are the names of the particles that make up soil from the smallest to the largest particles?
The names of the particles that make up soil from the smallest to the largest particles are clay, silt, and sand.
On a topographic map how do you show a steep cliff?
if someone were to make a topographic map they would mostlikly have a bunch a contour lines realy close together because the closer they are together the more steep it is.so i guess they would make close contour lines then make a drop off
What do nitrogen oxides and sulfur oxides make?
These two elements combine together with atmospheric water particles to make Photochemical Smog and "London" smog. When the water particles get much denser this forms with the NO and SO so create dilute sulfurous, sulfur and nitric acids which falls as rain resulting in acid rain.
Why do most materials become less dense as their temperature increases?
I believe it has something to do with molecules. Heat is caused by the molecules of an object rubbing against each other and causing friction, which is heat. As they do this, they slowly spread the edges of whatever the material is in order to have more room to move. This changes the size of the material, but the amount of molecules remains the same, leaving the material less dense than it was before.
How are the particles that make up a conglomerates different from the particles in sandstone or shale?
They are considerably larger particles.
What is the movement of particles in a solid liquid and gas?
The particles in a solid are close together.They are fixed in pace but can vibrate.The particles that make up a liquid are close together but usually farther apart than the particles in a solid are.They can slide freely past one another.The particles in gas are farther apart than particles in a liquid and solid.Gas particles move freely in any directions.
Why can't you compress a solid?
Because a solid allready has a form that is why you cant compress it
Do solids dissolve more quickly in cold or warm water?
Solids dissolve a lot more quickly in hot water because the heat breaks up the particles more quickly, where as the cold would make the particles stay stronger/closer together :)
What particles act together to make atoms behave as a solids?
Electrons. Mutually repel elections of other atoms when they get close (as they are then much closer to other electrons than other protons)
Which is true about particles that make up solid matter?
The same particles of matter that make up a solid are also the same particles of matter that make up a gas or a liquid. Basically matter consists of atoms. At the simplest level, the particles of atoms are electrons, protons and neutrons.
Are the particles that make up gases packed together in a relatively fixed position?
maybe
What make ice?
water particles slowing down to the point were they bond together and harden
What happens to particles that make up your body when you touch cold water?
our receptors receipts it !! that's all
Do change of state make cooling causes particles to get closer together and materials?
does boiling causees change of state do the particles in amaterial become closer
Why solids transmit sound better than liquids and gases?
Solids transmit sound and vibration better than liquids and gases because solids' particles molecule's are stuck close together but gas' particles are far off wandering around while liquid's particles are not so close but closer than gas . The best sound/vibration creator is solids then liquids and last gases . Plus to put it in a way that any first grader would say is that a solid is hard so when you bang them together they make an astronomical sound . Its nothing really complex .
What chemical is added to make particles stick together?
These substances are called caking agents or agglomerants.
What happens to the particles in a solid when it dissolved?
The particles in the solid (solute) break apart and form links with the particles in the liquid (solvent). There are strong forces of attraction between the molecules and particles inside the solute. These forces keep the particles together and make the solute a solid because they attract the solute particles tightly together. There are also strong forces of attraction between the molecules and particles inside the solvent. These forces keep the particles together and make the solvent a liquid because they attract the solvent particles slightly together. There is also an attractive force between the solute and solvent particles. To break these forces and from a bond between the solute and solvent particles energy is needed. This energy is gained from heat (the process of dissolving is speeded up through heat.) In conclusion, the particles in a solute break apart of their attractive forces and form bonds with the solvent particles through the attraction between the solute and solvent particles and through the energy gained by heat.
