Why do solids becomes more soluble in water as the temperature increases?

Temperature is a measurement of the average kinetic energy on the atomic or molecular level; hotter substances have faster moving particles. Faster moving particles have more energetic collisions with the particles of which solids are formed, which are more able to knock them out of the solid and into the solution, than slower moving particles would be.


Does wind and water drop materials they are carrying when they are moving faster or slower?

Yes


Why is water a magnifier?

because the particles in the water are moving and vibrating faster and and will eventually reflect of the particles in the soapy liquid elecctrons help with this process!


Why does colder water have a higher density than warmer water?

because warm water has faster moving particles


Think of a metal spoon in a pot of hot water. How do the particles of the water affect the particles of the spoon?

Conduction is what transfers the heat in this process. The fast moving particles in the hot electric coil collide with the slow-moving particles in the cool pot. The transfer of the heat causes the pot's particles to move faster. Then the pot's particles collide with the water's particles, which in turn collide with the particles of the spoon. As the particles move faster, the metal spoon becomes hotter.


What is the effect of temperature on water?

the effect of temperature on water is that when the temperature increases the water particles move faster and when moove too fast the water evaporates. but when the temperature decreases, the particles move slower, creating no heat and the water freezes. (:


Do particles move faster or slower when water vapour cools and forms raindrops?

The particles move slightly faster, it has a medium attraction and pours down. Next time, do your own grade 9 science homework ! :) - I. M


Why sugar dissolves faster in hot tea than in iced tea?

Sugar dissolves faster in something hot than it does in something cold is because when particles are heated, they move faster. This way, the sugar is more attracted to the water in the tea, making it dissolve. In cold water, it moves slower, creating it to attract to the water slower.


Does light travel more faster or slower as they enter water?

Slower in water.


How will you demonstrate that particles of matter are moving?

To demonstrate this, you could heat water (heating it allows the particles to move faster) and you will see as it boils bubbles on the top, showing that particles are constantly moving however in this case you have sped them up.


Do substances dissolve faster or slower in hot water?

slower


Does salt water freeze faster or slower than fresh water?
