If a solid is subjected to heat, it will expand. On reaching its melting point, the solid will become liquid. At boiling point it will convert in to gaseous form. These are the three states of a matter.

How do people change the state of matter?

If the matter is in a liquid state, add heat to turn liquid to vapor. Remove heat to form a solid. If it is in the form of a vapor, remove heat to form a liquid, and remove more heat to form a solid. If it is in the form of a solid, add heat to turn it into a liquid. Add more heat to turn into a vapor.


What do you add or subtracting to change a state of matter?

To change the state of matter, you need to add or remove energy. For example, to change a solid to a liquid, heat is added to increase the temperature until it reaches the melting point. Likewise, to change a liquid to a gas, heat is added to increase the temperature until it reaches the boiling point.


What happens to solid liquid or gases when they absorb or release the amount of heat?

When a solid absorbs heat, it may melt and turn into a liquid. When a liquid absorbs heat, it may vaporize and turn into a gas. Conversely, when a gas releases heat, it may condense and turn into a liquid, and when a liquid releases heat, it may solidify and turn into a solid.


What does a solid do when you add heat to it?

When heat is added to a solid, its particles vibrate faster and the solid gains energy. This increased energy causes the solid to expand slightly as the particles move farther apart. If enough heat is added, the solid may reach its melting point and transition into a liquid state.


What happens to the volume of a solid when heat is added?

When heat is added to a solid, its particles gain energy and move more vigorously, causing an increase in temperature and expansion of the solid. This increase in kinetic energy typically leads to an increase in volume as the particles move further apart.

What happens if you add enough heat to a solid?

It depends on the solid. Stone would probably become molten lava. Metals would become liquid and could by poured into moulds. Solid ice would turn into water.
