What else can I help you with?
Why is conduction in gases slower than conduction in liquid or solids?
Conduction in gases is slower than in liquids or solids because gases have lower particle density and weaker intermolecular forces, resulting in less efficient energy transfer through collisions. In liquids and solids, particles are closer together, allowing for faster transfer of kinetic energy through direct contact.
Dose conduction work in solids liquids or gases?
conduction take place in solids and gases
Why does conduction occur more easily in solids and liquids than in gases?
Conduction is the transfer of heat by direct contact. It is more likely to occur in soilds and liquids because the particles are closer and move slower.
What is the difference between conduction and convection a 5th grade answer please?
Conduction occurs in solids and liquids but not gases. Convection occurs in gases and liquids.
Does conduction happen in gases?
Yes, conduction can occur in gases, but it is not as efficient as in solids and liquids. In gases, heat conduction primarily occurs through collisions between gas molecules. The rate of conduction in gases is lower compared to solids and liquids due to the larger distance between gas molecules.
Is convection a chemical reaction?
no it is a type of conduction that can happen in liquids and gases, conduction happens in solids, and radiation happens in gases
Does conduction only occur between solids?
No, conduction can occur in solids, liquids, and gases. In solids, conduction happens through direct contact between particles. In liquids and gases, it occurs through the transfer of heat energy by the movement of particles.
Do liquids and solids diffuse easily?
No, liquids and solids do not diffuse as easily as gases due to their tightly packed molecular structure and lower kinetic energy. Diffusion in liquids is generally slower than in gases, but it can still occur over time. In solids, diffusion is even slower due to the rigid arrangement of molecules.
Sound travels slower through gases than through liquids and solids because the molecules in gases are?
farther apart, resulting in fewer collisions between molecules. This allows sound waves to move with less resistance and at a slower pace compared to the more densely packed molecules in liquids and solids.
What is condution?
Conduction is the transfer of heat particles from a high concentration to a low concentration in solids, liquids and gases.
How Conduction occurs in solid materials like metals but is not effective way of transferring heat in liquids and gases . explain why this is so?
Conduction is more effective in solids like metals because the particles are closer together, allowing heat to be transferred easily through direct contact. In contrast, liquids and gases have particles that are more spread out, making it harder for heat to transfer through conduction as there are fewer direct collisions between particles to pass on heat energy. This results in slower heat transfer rates in liquids and gases compared to solids.
Why do solids heat up faster than liquids or gases?
Since most of the time we are concerned with heat being transferred via conduction, the denser the material, the easier it is to conduct heat. Except for the rare anomaly (think ice vs liquid water) solids are denser than their corresponding liquid forms. All that is a gross simplification of course. Many liquids heat quite a bit better than solids and convection (which can occur in liquids but not solids) can greatly aid in the speed of "heating up", so the generalization that solids heat up faster than liquids is only a tendency rather than a rule.
