Vapor pressure
Sublimation can occur because solids have enough thermal energy to transition directly into a gas without passing through the liquid phase. This process happens when the vapor pressure of the solid exceeds the atmospheric pressure.
When solids become gas, the process is called sublimation, where the solid turns directly into a gas without passing through the liquid phase. When liquids become gas, it is called vaporization, which can occur through evaporation (at the surface) or boiling (throughout the liquid).
Conduction is the transfer of heat by direct contact. It is more likely to occur in soilds and liquids because the particles are closer and move slower.
Solids, liquids, and gasses
Radiation can occur in all three states of matter - solids, liquids, and gases. It is a form of energy transfer that does not require a medium. Radiation can travel through solids, liquids, and gases as electromagnetic waves or particles.
Conduction is the transfer of heat by direct contact. It is more likely to occur in soilds and liquids because the particles are closer and move slower.
No, conduction can occur in solids, liquids, and gases. In solids, conduction happens through direct contact between particles. In liquids and gases, it occurs through the transfer of heat energy by the movement of particles.
No, liquids and solids do not diffuse as easily as gases due to their tightly packed molecular structure and lower kinetic energy. Diffusion in liquids is generally slower than in gases, but it can still occur over time. In solids, diffusion is even slower due to the rigid arrangement of molecules.
All three, solid liquid and gas.
Conduction occurs mainly in solids because their particles are closely packed together, allowing for transfer of heat energy by direct contact between particles. Liquids and gases have molecules that are more spread out, which hinders efficient transfer of energy through conduction.
Yes, conduction can occur in liquids. In liquids, energy is transferred through collisions between neighboring molecules, similar to solids. However, liquids are generally poorer conductors compared to solids due to their less organized structure.
move and transfer heat through bulk motion like gases and liquids. Heat conduction is the primary mode of heat transfer in solids, where energy is transferred through the vibration and collision of atoms and molecules within the solid material.
