What materials allows convection to take place?
water/gasses
2 What materials allow convection to take place?
water/gasses
Does convention occurs in solids?
Convection of mass cannot take place in solids, since neither bulk current flows nor significant diffusion can take place in solids. Diffusion of heat can take place in solids, but is referred to separately in that case as heat convection.
In what kind of materials does convection typically take place?
Typically liquid, but it can in a gas as well.
Can convection take place in gases?
Yes. In fact, this is how gasses pass along thermal energy. Convection encompasses all types of liquids including gasses.
Why does convection take place in the atmosphere?
Convection take place because of convection currents
Where does the fibbonacci sequence take place in everyday life?
Sunflowers
What materials does thermal transfer by convection take place in?
Convection
When does convection take place?
convection takas place wen iron piece is heated
Which layer of the earth does convection take place in?

What are the uses of catalysts in everyday life?
They help chemical reactions take place where they would either not take place at all or would only take place at much higher energies.
Where in the earth do convection currents occur?
Convection currents take place in the mantle.
Why does convection take place?
Convection takes place because cool air is less dense than warm air.
Can convection take place in a vacuum?
No
Can transfers of heat by convection take place in liquids?
yes it can.
What materials allows convection to take place?
