solid becaus there are more molecules so they spread the heat energy around quicker

What do you call it when you add heat to solid to get gas?
It is called sublimation when you turn a solid into a gas. When you turn a gas into a solid it is called deposition.
What is the effect of heat on solid liquid and gas?
Heat cause excitation of electrons and molecular vibration. More heat is the more molecular vibration and at the certain point when the energy in molecular vibration exceed the bonding energy, the molecules or atom then set free from the solid bonding and move freely. In absent of atmospheric pressure, the solid would become gas but with the pressure or presence of other gases, the matter may be mobile yet held together in liquid state. The liquid, with more heat, the energy from molecular excitation would set such liquid to become gas.
Is it true that the flow that transfers heat within a fluid is called a convection current?
In a convection current, heat flows with the heated molecules as they move around in the liquid or gas. In a solid, the heat transfers via condition
Adding or removing what makes substances change from one state to another?
A change of state is when a substance shifts from solid, liquid or gas to another state. This happens when heat is removed or added.
How does heat travel by conduction through liquid and gas?
liquid will make gas only if it is hot, because the heat will make it steam up making it a gas.
What is the best conductor of transferring energy as heat?
A metal. It's a better conductor than liquid, gas, or rubber.
Is gas a good conductor of heat?
No because only metals are good conductor of heat and gas is not a metal.
What heats up faster solid or gas?
Conductible metals are one of the best conductors, such as copper, silver, and gold. Aluminium is also a good conductor. All of these conduct heat better than a gas.
Why put argon gas in windows?
Argon is a poor conductor of heat compared to air, it makes the window a better insulator.
Is Fe a solid?
Yes, iron is a good conductor of heat and electricity. Most metals are good conductors of heat and electricity. Most nonmetals are not good conductors of heat and electricity.
What is a poor conductor of electricity and can be a solid liquid or gas?
rubber
Why is there a layer of air in between windows?
It's not air - it's Argon gas. Argon gas is an inert gas, and a poor heat conductor - which is why double-glazed windows keep the heat in better than single-glazed panes.
What are the differences of metal and non metal?
Metals are good conductors of heat and electricity, are ductile, malleable and shiny, and most of them are solid (except mercury). A non metal is a bad conductor of heat and electricity, are not malleable, ductile or shiny, and can be a solid, liquid, or gas.
Is heat taken away or added in sublimation?
Sublimation is an endothermic physical change (heat is needed).
Can krypton conduct heat?
I don't think so because Krypton (Kr) is a gas and therefore not a metal and therefore not a conductor
Is usually a gas or brittle solid that is a poor conductor of electricity?
metalloid
What do you call it when you add heat to solid to get gas?
It is called sublimation when you turn a solid into a gas. When you turn a gas into a solid it is called deposition.
