Is a gas absorbing heat or releasing heat?

A gas can either absorb or release heat depending on the situation. When a gas absorbs heat, it can increase in temperature and expand. When a gas releases heat, it can decrease in temperature and contract.


Will an inert gas expand and contract with temperature?

It will contract.


What happens to a gas when you heated?

Applying heat to a gas will make it expand. If the volume of the gas is restricted (i.e. it cannot expand) then the pressure will increase.


What happens when you apply heat to a gas?

When heat is applied to a gas, its particles gain energy and move faster, increasing their kinetic energy. This causes the gas to expand and its pressure to increase. If enough heat is applied, the gas may change phase and become a plasma.


Will heat make a ball bounce higher?

Yes, because the gas molecules in the tennis ball expand. When the molecules expand there energy increases.


What state of matter can expand or contract depending on the volume of its container?

A gas can expand or contract depending on the volume of its container. Gases have no fixed shape or volume, and they fill the space available to them. When the volume of the container increases, the gas molecules spread out and the gas expands. Conversely, when the volume decreases, the gas molecules are compressed, causing the gas to contract.


What would increase the volume of a gas?

heat causes gases to expand


What would increase the volume of gas?

heat causes gases to expand


What does heat cause?

Heat causes ojects to expand . The object also will melt if it is a solid , and will turn into gas if heated.


Does gas turn to water when heated?

If a hydro-carbon is burnt it will make heat, CO2 and water however if a hydro-carbon is heated it will just expand into its surroundings


How many grams of gas is equal to 1 meter cube?

Any number you like. A given mass of gas will expand (or contract) to fill any volume.


Why does a gass expand when heated and contract when cooled?

When a gas is heated up, the particles within the gas start to move faster, going farther apart (expansion). When a gas is cooled, the particles slow down and it starts to condense (contract), and if cooled enough, into a liquid.
