The decrease in the volume of an object as it cools is called?

contraction. Compression is often used when an external force is being applied to reduce the volume of the object.


Why does the density of liquid increase as it cools?

As something cools down, the kinetic energy of its molecules decrease. This corresponds to a decrease in volume occupied of the substance, so the density decreases.


Does Aluminium's density change when cooled down?

Yes. While the mass will not change, the volume will decrease as the aluminium cools. Consequently the density will increase.


What happens when an object is cooled?
