What will happen to most liquids when the temperature is increased?

If the temperature is increased high enough to increase the value pressure of the liquid to that of the atmospheric pressure, the liquid will boil and vaporize to become a gas.

Generally what happen to most liquids if the temperature is increased?
They get hotter and evaporate more quickly. When the liquid reaches the evaporation point of one of its constituents, the temperature stops increasing while that part evaporates.
Explain what will happen to the mass volume and density of a liquid as the temperature increases?
If density = mass/volume, and your volume increases while mass remains the same... Then the denominator increases which would decrease the density
Why do liquids and solids expand with temperature and not compressible like a gas?
Most solids and liquids expand with temperature (ice is an exception - it contracts with increased temperature) because there is more energy in the particles, and therefore they move faster and take up more space. They are not compressible, however, because the particles in solids and liquids are touching each other, and so have a specific volume, unlike gases.
What would happen if the temperature increased in the desert?
Most likely this would result in increased desertification. Deserts would become hotter and encroach more upon surrounding landscapes.
How are viscosity and temperature related?
For most liquids viscosity decreases as temperature increases.
Are most metals liquids or solid at room temperature?
Solid
What is the effect of temperature on viscocity?
the colder most liquids get, the more viscous they get.
What requires less heat to change its temperature than do most other common liquids?
Water resists changes in temperature. Therefore, water requires more heat to increase it's temperature than do most other common liquids.
How many liquids are there on the perodic table?
The state of elements depends on the temperature. Most periodic tables give the state of the elements at room temperature. Since only mercury and bromine are liquids at room temperature, these are the only elements listed as liquids on the periodic table.
Are ionic compounds always brittle?
No. Some of them are liquids at room temperature, and most of them can be melted at higher temperature.
Are metals solid liquids or gasses at room temperature?
Most non metals are usually liquids or gases at room temperature, although not specifically one or the other. It depends on the properties of the substance. Most metals are solids at room temperature, with the exception of Mercury.
What happen most likely happen to the rate of reaction of a human enzyme when the temperature is increased gradually from 40c to 90c?
When a high enough temperature is reached enzymes denature (unfold) and loose all their functions. Most human enzymes have an optimal temperature of 40C. As you increase from 40C to 90C the reaction rate will decrease until it reaches 0.
