All matter carries energy and it can be transferred between objects. EVERYTHING has some sort of energy in it. The best example is collision between a particle and its antiparticle (e.g., electron and positron). The result of such a collision is complete annihilation of the matter and production of two gamma photons traveling in opposite directions (in the center of mass frame of reference). Gamma photons are a form of electromagnetic energy.

Can a change in matter take place without energy being released or absorbed?

No, a change in matter can't take place without energy being released or absorbed? Why? Well, this is because every chemical or physical change in matter includes a change in energy. You can't change matter without a change in energy. Energy is the ability to do work or cause change. Hope you find this helpful. And yes, this answer has been approved by my science teacher.


Can energy be released when matter can it be absorbed can a change in matter in matter take place in which energy is neither released nor absorbed?

Energy can be released when matter changes. For example when something burns, such as natural gas (methane) combining with oxygen from the air, such as happens in a gas stove, to form carbon dioxide and water and release lots of energy. If you use a gas stove, this is how you cook. Energy can be absorbed when matter changes. For example, when ice in your glass absorbs heat from the room and melts, a phase change from ice to water, energy is absorbed. Matter can change without either net absorption or net release of energy, but some energy may be borrowed to enable the change and then returned after the change.


What happens to energy when matter undergoes chemical or physical change?

During a chemical or physical change, the energy of matter can either be absorbed or released. For example, in chemical reactions, energy is exchanged in the form of heat or light as chemical bonds are broken or formed. In physical changes, such as melting or boiling, energy is used to break intermolecular forces between particles.


What energy is released when energy changes?

I assume you mean when matter reacts; energy is created.There is no way for particular forms of energy (IE light energy, gravitational energy) to "change form"


When absorbed light energy is released by matter it is called what?

Example for light energy is absorbed or released, Heat is released and absorbed, electrical energy absorbed or released...


True or false every chemical or physical change in matter includes a change in energy?

True. Every chemical or physical change in matter involves a change in energy. Energy is either absorbed or released during these processes, leading to a change in the internal energy of the system. This principle is known as the first law of thermodynamics, which states that energy cannot be created or destroyed, only transferred or converted from one form to another.


What happens to the energy in matter that is decaying?

Energy is released.


endothermic?

A reaction where energy is taken in.


Is a change in matter in which energy is taken as an endothermic change?

yes


Can energy move matter?

Yes, energy can move matter. In the context of physics, energy can cause matter to change position or speed through various forms such as kinetic energy or mechanical energy. For example, heat energy can cause particles in matter to vibrate, move, or change phase.


When you recycle what type of energy is it?

Energy is stored in all matter- potential in nature. On conversion matter will change it's state or convert to another form of matter. In the process energy is absorbed by it or released from it. Fire wood, when it burns, absorbs oxygen from atmosphere and carbon combines with oxygen releasing heat energy in the process.


What can cause a matter to change?

through energy and inertia the matter changed.
