If the particles are small enough, they will move faster as they get hotter.

What Experiment shows particles in water move faster when hot than cold?

You could use an Alka-Seltzer tablet and record how long it takes for the tablet to dissolve in different temperatures. Since particles move faster in hot water then the Alka-Seltzer tablet should dissolve quicker.


What are cold particles?

Cold particles are particles that can attach too any materials, including air, whatever they bond with they freeze. Cold particles attach to slow moving objects because they are slow, thus they cannot attach or find it difficult to attach to accelerating objects. Picture this, when slowly entering a swimming pool you find it cold because you are slowly entering the pool which is full of cold particles, where as if you jump in, you are entering at a faster acceleration, the cold particles cant attach to you and you find the pool warmer than if you were to climb in. Cold particles are so small they are invisible to the naked eye, and even to a microscope, so small, that some would say they don't exist. The correct name for a cold particle is 'tnucaeruoy', the 'T' is silent, but is most commonly referred to as a cold particle. Professor Westwood University of Cambridge


What happens to particles and molecule when temperature turns hot or cold?

When temperature increases, particles and molecules gain kinetic energy, causing them to move faster and spread apart, which can lead to changes in state, such as solid to liquid (melting) or liquid to gas (evaporation). Conversely, when temperature decreases, particles lose kinetic energy, move more slowly, and come closer together, which can result in the transition from gas to liquid (condensation) or liquid to solid (freezing). These changes in motion and arrangement affect the physical properties of substances.

Which situation of water portrays particles with the least amount of motion?

Extremely cold ice.


How did the Brownian motion develop a theory about heat and temperature?

when heat is added to cold water, the particles starts to move around. The particles now have more energy for motion. The temperature of the water also rises from the movement of the particles.


What is it called the measure of the energy of motion of particles of matter?

The measure of the energy of motion of particles of matter is called temperature. Temperature is a fundamental property of matter that quantifies how hot or cold an object is based on the average kinetic energy of its particles.


What is the measure of the average amount of motion in particles matter called?

The measure of the average amount of motion in particles in matter is called temperature. Temperature is a physical quantity that expresses hot and cold and is proportional to the average kinetic energy of the particles in a substance.


What happening to the motion of the particles in the soup as it cools?

As the soup cools, the motion of the particles decreases. This is because the particles lose kinetic energy due to the decrease in temperature. With lower kinetic energy, the particles move more slowly, eventually leading to a solidification of the soup if it becomes cold enough.

What happens to air when it gets extremely cold?

The particles in the air come closer together and don't move as much.

How can particles in an object can be moving if the object is not?

Particles in an object can still be moving even if the object as a whole is not visibly moving. This is because particles are in constant motion due to thermal energy, even in solids where the object appears to be stationary. The motion of particles within the object contributes to its internal energy and properties.


How did the brownian motion help develop a theory about heat and temperature?

Brownian motion, observed by Robert Brown in 1827, played a crucial role in developing the kinetic theory of gases and understanding heat and temperature. The random movement of particles suspended in a fluid led to the realization that heat is a form of energy associated with the motion of particles at the microscopic level, contributing to the development of statistical mechanics and thermodynamics theories.


What happens when KMnO4 is exposed to cold temperatures?

When potassium permanganate (KMnO4) is exposed to cold temperatures, it may crystallize and form solid particles. This can affect its solubility and reaction rate.


Why is there a haphazard motion of smoke particles seen in a smoke cell which is viewed through a microscope?

It's called Brownian motion. It's caused by atoms and molecule zipping about (because of the energy they have as a result of being warm) colliding with the smoke particles and bumping them around. It would happen less if the smoke was very cold because the atoms and molecules would move less. Conversely, if you increased the temperature of the smoke the motion would be greater
