The temperature of steel is determined by the amount of vibration of its constituent atoms. Hotter atoms vibrate more. And when they vibrate more, they take up more space. Hence, the steel expands.
As the individual atoms are warmed up, they move faster causing the substance to expand slightly. As a substance has energy added to it through heating, its Kinetic Energy becomes greater. Kinetic energy is the energy of Motion - the more the kinetic energy of the atoms of a substance means the faster the speed of motion of these same atoms.
Yes, it gains kinetic energy, for instance, when water is heated into water vapours the molecules of water vapour move faster than the molecules of water. This is because the water vapour has more kinetic energy than water.
When matter is heated the particles in the matter gain energy and begin to move or vibrate more depending on the state in which the matter is currently in. If the heat provided is significant enough they can change state too. Hope that was what you were looking for!
kinetic theory.
This is because when heat is applied to particles, they gain energy, therefore they travel faster and space out. The volume will increase though the density will decrease. So matter will always expand when exposed to heat.

When a matter is heated then the vibration of atoms increase and hence the kinetic energy increases.

When a matter is heated then the vibration of atoms increase and hence the kinetic energy increases.
Matter expands when heated, because molecules move farther apart.
Gases. Their molecules are already the farthest apart compared with solids and liquids, and small changes in temperature causes these loose molecules to absorb the kinetic energy of the heat and expand. If not bound by a container, the gas can expand indefinitely into the atmosphere.
The solid will expand.
