What happens to particles in matter when you remove thermal energy from them?
They stop moving and stop producing energy.
What happens when you remove thermal energy from a gas?
It turns into a liquid. Just like if you were to remove thermal energy from a substance the atoms will slow down.
What happens if we remove thermal energy to a liquid.?
It will get colder. It also might freeze.
What happens to a sample of matter when its particles lose kinetic energy?
A loss of kinetic energy in the atoms or molecules of a sample of matter will result in the cooling of the sample. That sample will get colder as remove thermal energy from it. The atoms/molecules of a substance have kinetic energy associated with them. This kinetic energy is the result of atomic and/or molecular motion. As a sample of matter cools, the atoms and/or molecules will lose mobility. Loss of mobility and vibrational energy, which are forms of kinetic energy, will become apparent when thermal energy is removed from the sample.
Flat iron is heat energy?
I would not think so. It has thermal energy though.

What makes matter change forms?
Any type of reaction, really. You could add heat or remove heat (thermal energy) to cause the matter to change phase. Also pressure can compress the matter into a new form.

What happens if you add or remove energy to a glass of water?
if you add it will stay liquid but if you remove it will freeze
Is it possible to use colder things rather than hot things for thermal energy?
Yes. Heat sinks around computer processors are colder than the processors: they "remove" thermal energy from the processors and so stop them from overheating.
Does a refrigerator change heat into cold remove thermal energy from inside the refrigerator or cause thermal energy to disappear?
Thermal energy never disappears, but it can be moved from one place to another, which is what a refrigerator does. If you examine your refrigerator you will be able to observe that there are heat exchange tubes (usually on the back) which get hot as they pump heat from the interior to the exterior of the refrigerator.
Which type of thermal energy transfer is prevented when a baker uses a potholder to remove hot cookies sheets from an oven?
conduction

Can nuclear energy travel in a vacuum?
Radioactive particles and gamma rays can do so. The energy from fission however appears as thermal energy in the nuclear fuel, and this needs a medium such as water or gas to remove the heat.
