Does heat increase or decrease thermal energy?

increase


When a substance freezes does its thermal energy decrease?

yes


When dry ice disappears does the thermal energy decrease or increase?

i think the thermal energy increases because thermal energy is the energy which is due to the movement of particles, so when the the particles are released there is more thermal energy(they against each other).


Are Heat energy and thermal energy opposite?

Thermal energy is the energy contained in a system at a specific temperature a combination of kinetic and potential of the particles. Heat Energy is similar as Thermal energy but when you add heat energy the Temperature of the system may decrease on increase.

What would you use to decrease the amount of thermal energy that moves from one place to another?

You would use thermal isolation.


What do you use to decrease the amount of thermal energy that moves from one place to another?

Conductor


What happens when a hot solid is cooled?

The temperature decrease and also the volume.


What happens to the thermal energy of a substance during a change of state?

it will increase or decrease depending on the states. from solid --> liquid or liquid --> gas it is positive and endothermic, and thermal energy is increasing from liquid --> solid or gas --> liquid it is negative and exothermic, and thermal energy is decreasing


Can work done on a system decrease its thermal energy?

Yes. As an example: if you define a refrigerator as your system, the work done on the system causes heat to be expelled from the system to the surroundings. The net heat expelled will be equal to the work input plus the decrease in its thermal energy.


How does in thermal energy cause matter to change from one state to another?

An increase in thermal energy may change a solid to a liquid, a liquid to a gas, or a solid to a gas.A decrease in thermal energy may cause a change in the opposite direction - for example, from a liquid to a solid.
