When temperature is increased, the solid obtains heat energy from the source. As we know that energy cannot be destroyed, so the heat energy is used by the atoms of the solid to vibrate. This vibration loosens the bond between the molecules of the solid. As a result the solid expands, decreasing its density. Not only solids, but all substances (except water) expand on heating.

Is the density of gaseous substance likely to be larger or smaller then the density of liquid or solid substance at the same temperature and why?

Temperature in this instance will not affect density, but rather pressure. The density of the gas will be much smaller than the density of a liquid or solid of the same chemical because it is a gas. The formula for density is mass over volume, and a gas has no measurable mass, making the gas always less dense than the liquid and the solid.


What is the effect of temperature on water?

the effect of temperature on water is that when the temperature increases the water particles move faster and when moove too fast the water evaporates. but when the temperature decreases, the particles move slower, creating no heat and the water freezes. (:
