Matter is composed of molecules. These molecules move around. The movement stops only when a body of matter reaches absolute zero (about -253 degrees Celsius).
The higher the temperature, the more movement. With movement increase, the distance between molecules increases, so the volume gets bigger.

What is the increase in volume of a material when heated called?
Expansion.
If the air inside a balloon is heated the volume will?
The volume would increase as the pressure of the expanding air increases.
What happens to particles as the temperature increases?
As the temperature of a substance increases, its molecules move faster and therefore take up more space. This generally causes a substance to increase in volume when heated.
If the volume of an object increases what will the density do?
it will increase. the epuation for density is mass divided by volume.
Why does the volume of a balloon increase as the balloon is heated?
Because the gas inside expands with the heat
Does the volume of an object change if heated?
The volume of a substance increases when heated
Will a mass of an object increase after heated?
no
A volume of water is heated from C to C what happens?
The volume increase.
What is the increase in volume of a material when heated called?
Expansion.
What happens to the volume when heat is added?
When a substance is heated it's volume will increase.
Why does the volume of gas increase as it is heated?
it increase as a result of pressure generated from the heat
Why does volume of solid liquid or gas increase when it is heated?
the volume of a solid this that humans do to warm up
What happens to the volume when you enlarge a 3d object?
The volume increase - ib proportion to the cube of the linear increase.
How can you increase density if mass is constant?
You can increase the density of an object with constant mass by decreasing the object's volume.
If the air inside a balloon is heated the volume will?
The volume would increase as the pressure of the expanding air increases.
What happens to particles as the temperature increases?
As the temperature of a substance increases, its molecules move faster and therefore take up more space. This generally causes a substance to increase in volume when heated.
Does the mass of a steel tube increase when it is heated from 30 degrees to 60 degrees?
When steel (or indeed anything) is heated its mass does not change. Volume is altered by cooling and heating. In this case the volume of the steel would increase.
