When energy is transferred to molecules and they move faster does temperature increase or decrease?
increase
How do you increase or decrease the movment of molecules?
Molecules react to thermal energy, or heat, as well as pressure. When you increase the temperature of molecules, they will increase their vibration and movement. Pressure can also allow molecules to move from one area to another.
What happens to enthalpy when temperature is decreased?
the atoms (or molecules) within the substance move slower, as temperature decreases.
What is the movement of atoms in a liquid during a temperature changes both increases and decreases?
As temperature increases, the atoms will move around more energetically - moving on average faster. Translational speeds increase, rotational speeds of the molecules increase, and the magnitude of vibrations of the atoms about their bonds in molecules increase As temperature decreases, the atoms move around less energetically - moving on average slower. Translational speeds decrease, rotational speeds of the molecules decrease, and the magnitude of vibrations of the atoms about their bonds in molecules decrease
Do volcanic eruption increase or decrease the temperature of the earth?
increase
Does water always have the same energy?
No. The energy you might be referring to is kinetic energy which is the energy possessed by individual water molecules. An increase in kinetic energy will be percieved as and increase in temperature. Similarly a decrease in kinetic energy will be percieved as a decrease in temperature.
Is molecular movement directly related of inversely related to temperature?
Molecular movement is directly related to temperature. As temperature increase, the additional energy is absorbed by the molecules. This energy is converted to motion energy and the molecules will move faster.
How does temperature affect the volume of substance?
An increase in temperature will cause an increase in volume, while a decrease in temperature will cause a decrease in volume.
Is the energy of the molecules increase or decrease in the state of vaporization?
Energy of the molecules increase in the state of vaporization.
As you get higher in the atmosphere does the temperature increase or decrease?
decrease
Does the temperature increase or decrease with altitude in the tropospere?
Decrease
Can people increase or decrease a planet temperature?
They can do both, but it is up to them to decrease usage of fuels in order to increase planet temperature.
