For example pure silicon doesn't expand in a given range of temperature.
Also a mixture of amorphous and crystalline quartz has a thermal expansion coefficient near zero ("Zerodur" from Schott).
But the majority of materials suffer thermal expansion.

They expand ------- No, normally metals expand when heated.
Do all gases expand the same amount?
no, cuz there is a thing called the expansivity of a substance that tells us how much a particular substance will expand over 1 degree change in temprature
Heating a white substance produces a vapor and black material Was the substance an element or a compound?

Do all liquids expand when heated?
Liquids expand more than solids on heating
Why does water expand by 10 percent when it freezes?
Its very unusual for a substance to expand when it freezes, water is just odd that way. Its just a property of water, its moleucles expand in the area they take up and take up more space.

All objects do not expand on heating.....Only metals expand on heating.....non metals like wood,plastic,etc do not expand on heating.
Which liquid expand on heating?
All liquids expand on heating (apart from water between 0oC to 4oC)
What causes a substance to expand?

What is the physical effect of heat?
Heating a substance usually makes it expand Heating a substance can make it change state (solid to liquid, liquid to gas, gas to plasma) Heating a substance can make it emit light at shorter wavelengths Heating a substance can make it more malleable.

When heating a substance what happens?
Heating a substance can result in a chemical reaction, which usually results in a simple combustion reaction. This is because Oxygen, or O2, is added to the substance, which can dramatically alter the substance.
