Best Answer

If a gas was removed from all heat sources, it would turn into a liquid and possibly freeze depending on how cold you were able to get it. Heat causes the gas molecules to vibrate which ultimately leads to an increase in volume and a decrease in density. Reduction of heat causes the molecules to vibrate less which leads to a decrease in volume and an increase in density.

What will happen if you take away heat?

It depends on what you are taking the heat from. If you take the heat away from a gas it becomes a liquid, which is called condensation. If you take heat away from a liquid it becomes a solid, and that is called freezing.

How does gas change into a solid?

I think you make the gass cold. As my teacher said" you take away heat."


What happens when heat is added to a substance?

well this isn't a specific question you see there is 2 different kind of substances ; For example:... solid : when heat is added to a solid it becomes a liquid liquid: when heat is added to a liquid it becomes a gas! for example water > if you add heat it will hot add or take away chemicals!

Is heat taken away or added in sublimation?

Sublimation is an endothermic physical change (heat is needed).


What happens when you put heat and gas together?

You get an explosion.

Nothing.


What happens for heat to be transferred by convection?

the liquid or gas must circulate to move the heat.


What happens when heat is added to gas in a sealed container?

What happens when you apply heat to a gas?

Applying heat to a gas will make it expand. If the volume of the gas is restricted (i.e. it cannot expand) then the pressure will increase.


What happens when gas condense?

It provides heat to the surface it condenses to. That is why gas condenses on cold surfaces.
