Heat (thermal energy) is the major reason for state change in matter.

(Although ambient pressure modifies that at the liquid/vapor boundary.)

Basically as energy increases matter moves from solid to liquid to gas to plasma.

Why does change in state requires a change in energy?

States need regulations on energy to save the country money. The US is in debt about $13 trillion so they need to save energy to save money. With the regulations, states will be supported with grants, and this will help the value of the dollar go up. It also saves the environment.


What do therodynamics apply to?

Everything, all matter within existence is subject to the transfer of thermal energy. Thermodynamics help us to understand how matter will behave when undergoing a change in thermal energy.


What form of energy is usually the cause of a change of state?

The type of energy that causes a change in temperature is kinetic energy between molecules. If kinetic energy lowers between molecules then temperature lowers and vice versa.

When do matter change physically?

Things only move from one phase to another by physical means. If energy is added (like increasing the temperature or increasing pressure) or if energy is taken away (like freezing something or decreasing pressure) you have created a physical change. =)) Hope it can help!


What is rate of change of energy?

The rate of change of energy is a measure of how quickly the energy of a system is increasing or decreasing over time. It can be calculated by dividing the change in energy by the change in time. This rate can help in understanding processes involving energy transfer or transformation.

What can help you understand the natural laws that relate to matter and energy?

Studying physics and related scientific disciplines can help you understand the natural laws that relate to matter and energy. This could include learning about principles such as conservation of energy, laws of thermodynamics, and the behavior of particles at the atomic level. Experimentation, observation, and critical thinking are essential for gaining a deeper understanding of these natural laws.
