Generally the release of heat as a function of speed is related to friction. That being the case, all else being equal, the greater the speed, the greater the friction and the more heat is released.

If you add heat energy to a substance what happens to the speed of the particle motion?

The particle speed increases.The energy increases; the speed increases.


What type of reaction will absorb more energy than it releases?

Endothermic. Assuming the energy absorbed is heat. Exothermic reactions release heat, such as the oxidation of hydrogen to create water.


The more the molecules an object contain the more heat energy it has?

The heat energy of an object is related to the movement of its molecules, not the number of molecules. Heat energy is determined by the speed and kinetic energy of the molecules, rather than the quantity of molecules in the object.


Which process, fission or fusion, releases more energy?

Fusion releases more energy than fission.


What is a chemical reaction in which more energy is given off than taken in?

Combustion, burning, releases more heat that is taken in to start the reaction.


Which form of energy is released or absorbed in most chemical reactions?

If there is any type of energy given offduring a chemical reaction, it is most likely to be heat or light. However, heat and light often come together, and there are more reactions known to give heat without light than the other way around. Thus, I would go for heat then. (simply put)


What is exo thermical reaction?

An exothermic reaction is a chemical reaction that releases energy in the form of heat. The energy released during the reaction increases the temperature of the surroundings. This type of reaction commonly involves the formation of bonds which releases more energy than is required to break the existing bonds.


The type of coal that releases the greatest amount of energy when burned is?

Anthracite coal releases the greatest amount of energy when burned compared to other types of coal. It has the highest carbon content and burns the most efficiently, producing more heat energy.


Is there a limit to heat since heat is the speed that particles move at there has got to be a limit because of the speed of light?

Probably you mean temperature, rather than heat. And the temperature is more related to a particle's ENERGY than to its SPEED. I believe the degrees of freedom also have something to do with it - something like, average kinetic energy per particle and degree of freedom. Anyway, even though more speed means more energy, larger particles will move more slowly for the same kinetic energy - and therefore they will be slower at the same temperature. Also, while the speed is limited to the speed of light, there is practically no limit to the kinetic energy a particle can have.


Why Is a candle burning a endothermic?

A candle burning is exothermic because it releases heat and light energy as it undergoes combustion. The chemical reaction between the wax and the oxygen in the air releases more energy than it takes to start the reaction, resulting in a net release of energy.


Does exothermic create more energy?

No, it releases energy to it's surroundings!


Why do the surroundings feel warm when a solid is formed from a liquid?

When a liquid solidifies, it releases heat to the surroundings, making them feel warm. This is because the molecules in the liquid are reorganizing themselves into a more ordered structure in the solid state, which releases energy in the form of heat.
