metals, like iron
As substances lose energy, they tend to decrease in temperature and may change state (e.g. solid to liquid). Conversely, as substances gain energy, they tend to increase in temperature and may change state in the opposite direction (e.g. liquid to gas).
It can range from mercury to alcohol it depends on the manufacturer.
Not all substances contract the same when subjected to cooling because each substance has its own unique molecular structure and properties. Factors such as intermolecular forces, atomic arrangements, and bond strengths all play a role in determining how much a substance will contract when its temperature decreases.
When substances are heated, typically their molecules gain energy and begin to move more rapidly. This increased movement can cause the substance to expand, change phase (from solid to liquid or gas), or even chemically react to form new substances. The specific changes depend on the substance's properties.
No, most solids contract when cooled, as the lower temperature causes the atoms or molecules to move less, leading to a decrease in volume. However, there are exceptions, such as water, which expands when cooled below 4°C before turning into ice.
The coefficient of _____ expansion. It depends what kind of expansion you are talking about.
Most substances contract when they get cooler. This is because the molecules in the substance slow down and move closer together, resulting in a decrease in volume. However, water is an exception—it expands when it freezes due to its unique molecular structure.
C. Most substances will contract. When the temperature of a substance decreases significantly, its particles lose kinetic energy, causing them to move closer together. This results in a decrease in volume, known as contraction.

They have to either expand or contract through movement. They can only expand and contract as far as their tissues will allow,
It will contract.
No, cooled substances typically contract or shrink in volume due to a decrease in temperature causing the particles to move more slowly and come closer together. This is known as thermal contraction.
No, most substances contract with cooling, only some exotic substances (eg water) expands when cooled.
All rock can expand or contract.
They expand.
