Does particles in gases expand when heated?
This is because when heat is applied to particles, they gain energy, therefore they travel faster and space out. The volume will increase though the density will decrease. So matter will always expand when exposed to heat.
What happens when heat is added to gas in a sealed container?
The particles of gas speed up.
What happen to the particles in a liquid or a gas when you heat them?
what happens is is that well i really know but cant share it with you bye
What happens to the particles that make up a solid if enough heat is added to melt it?
The particles begin to separate. If it turns into a gas, the particles will be more spaced out. Rather to a liquid.
What does it mean when particles spread out as heat energy increases?
Our interpretation of heat is based on the Maxwell-Boltzmann distribution of velocities among particles, the highest point on this distribution being the "temperature." As the heat energy increases (proportional to temperature) said distribution stretches to the right, meaning the average velocity of a particle increases. This increased velocity would either result in particles hitting the walls of the container with more frequency and force, resulting in a higher pressure (Gay-Lussac's Law) but if the volume of the container is not fixed (think balloon) then the volume will increase (Charles' Law) since there are the same number of particles but now they occupy a larger volume they would thus be more "spread out." tl;dr heat increase=>temperature increase=>velocity increase=>volume increase (Charles' Law)=> "spread out" particles
What happens to the distance between particles of a substance as it changes from a liquid to a gas?
The distance increases, as the particles become more energetic and the substance loses its definite volume, as the particles bounce around, due to heat/increased energy.
What happens at the particle level as a given volume of air is warmed?
the particles, as they are heated start to vibrate faster giving the particles of air to heat up. the more heat put into the the volume of air the faster the particles will vibrate. The more they vibrate the more pressure the particles create by their fast vibrations. Because the particles vibrate so fast they will hit the edge of the volume container making so much pressure eventually they will break the container and go free in the air.
What happens to heat particles?
becomes excited..
What happens when adding heat to matter?
particles
What happens to the volume when heat is added?
When a substance is heated it's volume will increase.
Does particles in gases expand when heated?
This is because when heat is applied to particles, they gain energy, therefore they travel faster and space out. The volume will increase though the density will decrease. So matter will always expand when exposed to heat.
What happens when you heat and cool air?
When you heat air, the air pressure rises and the particles expand.
If you heat up a fluid what happens to the volume?
The volume will increase as the fluid is warmed up.
Why heat capacity at constant pressure is greater than heat capacity at constant volume?
The heat capacity of a substance depends on how much heat energy can be stored in the motion of the substance's particles as well as the inter-molecular bond strengths holding the particles in their liquid/solid form. As we are considering the same substance's heat capacity as we change the volume or pressure, we need only consider the heat energy stored in the motion of the particles. Note that this motion can be internal vibrational motion. If the volume is increased there is a growing space and "states" to distribute the heat energy in the particles' motion. The ideal gas law related pressure and volume to temperature : PV = nRT. With it we see that the pressure in inversely proportional to the volume. P = nRT/V Therefore, if we increase the temperature and keep the pressure the same, we can only do this by increasing the volume. As mentioned before, this provides more "breathing room" for the particles to store the heat energy.
How does the addtiotion of heat affect the volume taken up by given number of particles?
The addition of heat will cause any group of particles to expand and take up more volume but since the mass remains the same the density would decrease.
Radiation is the type of heat roasts the marshmallows?
When roasting a marshmallow the transfer of heat from the flame to the marshmallow is radiation.Radiation is the transfer of heat through energy waves. It can actually be considered conduction as well if you place the marshmallow into the flame, since that is the direct transfer of heat.
What is the effect of heat on a marshmallow?
smoke and burn
