What are ways heat can change matter?
If you add heat to matter, it can either get it hotter, or it can change the state of matter (for example, from solid to liquid).
What is the study of matter and change of matter?
It's either Physical Science or Chemistry
What happens to energy when matter undergoes chemical or physical change?
Energy can either be soaked up by the matter in the process of making the change (melting), or be released from the matter during the change (fire).
Does a substance change mass if it changes physically?
No. Mass is a measure of how much matter is in an object, and that does not change when the matter changes states. The matter will either contract or expand, depending on the current state and the state to be reached, but that does not change how much matter is in the object.
What must you do to a substance to get it to change its state of matter?
That is done by either heating or cooling.
What are change of matter?
Changes in matter are either physical or chemical. Matter changes physically when it liquefies, evaporates, freezes, etc., and chemically when it combines with other types of matter in chemical compounds.
What is the change of a liquid to a solid?
Matter exists as either liquids, solids or gases, these are known as states of matter. The state of matter can change by heating or cooling. The process of changing a liquid to a solid is called freezing.
What heppens to matter when you add thermal energy?
When you add thermal energy to matter, either the temperature will increase, or there will be a change in the state (phase) of matter, for example when ice melts.
Why does every chemical or physical change in matter include a change in energy?
because the change either uses up enrgys, or the change absorbs energy in some way
What happens what thermal energy is added top matter?
Then it will either get hotter, or its phase will change (as when ice melts).
What state of matter unergoes change in volume most easily?
A gas will undergo a change in volume more easily than either a liquid or a solid.
What does matter can change state mean?
The same substance can exist either as a solid, liquid or a gas and can change state depending on the temperature or external pressure.
