When things are heated, the molecules become "excited" This excitement translates into expansion. When cooled the excitement diminishes, causing things to contract.
Basically the same for solids and non-solids. Different things have different degrees of expansion and contraction. Railroad tracks have been known to buckle, and concrete roads have also been known to "explode" when over heated. Bolts work themselves loose on bridges because of changes in heat and cold. ( exacerbated by movement vibration )

When a sample of gas is heated what happens to the motion of the particles?
When a gas sample is heated, the particles move faster and collide more frequently with each other and the walls of the container. This increased movement and collisions lead to an increase in the pressure and volume of the gas.
What happens to a gas's mass when it is heated?
The atoms in the mass become more energetic and create more pressure. If the bounds of the container allows it, such as in a balloon, the gas will expand. If the bounds doe not allow it, such as in a fixed container, the pressure will increase.
When a closed can is heated the pressure inside. this happens when?
When a closed can is heated, the molecules inside the can gain energy and move faster, leading to an increase in pressure. This happens because the increase in temperature causes the molecules to collide more frequently with the walls of the can, exerting more force and increasing the pressure inside.
How does gas affected when air is heated?
If the question is "How IS gas affected when it is heated":When gas is heated, it's volume increases (it expands).If the gas is contained within a chamber, the pressure will increase instead.
What happens when Sodium Hydroxide is heated with Zinc?
it would speed the reaction. With enough heat and pressure you can cause an explosion
What happens to the pressure of gas when it is heated at a constant heat?
The pressure is higher.
What happens when gas is heated?
it expands and/or its pressure rises, depending on conditions.
What happens to the speed of gas when heated?
The speed of the gas particles will increase as they are heated. That is why the pressure in a container increases. The particles are hitting the walls of the container with more force as they are heated.
What happens to a gas when you heated?
Applying heat to a gas will make it expand. If the volume of the gas is restricted (i.e. it cannot expand) then the pressure will increase.
What happens to the pressure of gas when it is heated and why?
When gas is heated, its particles gain more kinetic energy and move faster, increasing the pressure because they collide more frequently with the walls of the container. This increase in collisions results in a higher force per unit area, leading to an increase in pressure.
What happens to gas ina container when it is heated?
The gas molecules receive kinetic energy and start to vibrate
What happens to gas particles when a gas is heated?
When a gas is heated, the kinetic energy of the gas particles increases. This causes the particles to move faster and farther apart, leading to an increase in pressure and volume. Heating a gas also increases the average speed of the gas particles.
What happens to gas in a balloon when that gas is heated?
When the gas in a balloon is heated, its temperature increases, causing the gas molecules to move faster and collide more frequently with the walls of the balloon. This increases the pressure inside the balloon, which causes the balloon to expand as it attempts to accommodate the increased volume of gas.
What is a gas that expands when heated?
Any gas will expand when heated, assuming you keep pressure constant.
What happens when a gas is heated beyond 100 degrees?
Heating will cause the gas to expand; or, if the container does not permit expansion, for the pressure of the gas to increase. Other changes to the gas depend on which gas is being heated.
What happens to the motion of particles in a gas as the gas is heated?
When a gas is heated, the particles gain kinetic energy, causing them to move faster and collide more frequently with each other and the container walls. This increased motion leads to an increase in pressure and volume of the gas.
What happens the air when it is heated by the sun?
Like any other gas, air expands when it is heated. As the heat rises and the air spreads out, pressure decreases. this because pressure is the amount of force exerted on a specific area. Therefore, as gas spreads, it pushes less and over a larger area. so.... when heated by the sun, air pressure would technically decrease
