When you compress matter do the particles change size?

no, the space between them changes.


What is the relationship between energy and temperature change?

When heat is transferred in a space the average energy of the particles - the temperature of the substance - is affected, by increasing or decreasing. The change in temperature depends on the number of particles affected.


How does the space between the particles change as energy is added to them?

With relativistic considerations, it should [relativistically] decrease. According to special relativity, time dilation (and space contraction) is subject to both: relative velocity and gravitational fields. Now, gravitational mechanisms depend on mass, and by mass energy equivalence, energy as well. In a nutshell, more energy = more mass = more gravitation = more time dilation = more space contraction.

When an object cools its particles lose energy and as the space between particles decreases the object does what?

State Changes If you give the particles energy; or take energy away from them; then you can change their state. If you heat up a solid - you give it some energy. This causes the particles to move more and the solid to change into a liquid, or melt. If the liquid is heated then it may evaporate and turn into a gas.


Are the particles of matter moving what is between them?

Yes, the particles of matter are constantly moving. The movement is due to the kinetic energy they possess. This motion creates the space between particles in matter.


How does heat affect the space between particles?

When heat is applied to a substance, the particles gain energy and move more rapidly, causing the space between particles to increase. As the particles move faster, they spread out, creating more distance between them. This can lead to expansion or changes in the state of matter, such as melting or boiling.


What is An increase in the space between particles is called?

An increase in the space between particles is called expansion. This phenomenon typically occurs when a substance is heated, causing its particles to gain energy and move apart. Expansion can be observed in various states of matter, including solids, liquids, and gases. In gases, for example, the increase in space between particles leads to a decrease in density.


What particle takes up space?

Particles dont take up space it is heat that gives particles energy to move and expand solids have smaller spaces between them liquids have larger spaces between them gases have the largest spaces between them


What has little free space between particles?

A solid has little free space between particles.


Particles are able to flow over each other?

Yes they can. In fact, the particle theory claims that all particles move and have space between themselves. For example, take gas. Gas has moving particles that have A LOT of space between them. They can easily flow over one another particle.

What is in the space between the particles?

The space between molecules is called inter molecular space.
