What causes the greatest increase in the motion of molecules in a system?
One thing that causes the greatest increase of motion of molecules is an increase in temperature.
What situations would cause the greatest increase in the motion of molecules in a system?
Q=+50J , W=-50J
What situations would cause the greatest decrease in the motion of molecules in a system?
the system releases 100 J of heat and does 100 J of work. just got the question wrong ;-; here's the answer for the homies
Why does lithium reacts faster in hot water?
b.c reaction rate increases as a function of temperaturebecause of the increase in heat, there is an increase in kinetic energy in the system, therefore the molecules move faster having more collisions
Are molecules constantly in motion?
Mostly yes and possibly no. Temperature is defined as the average kinetic energy of all of the particles in a system, so in the bulk sense, yes, atoms and molecules are always moving, because temperature is always greater than absolute zero. However, on an individual atom by atom basis, there may be some atoms that momentarily might have a lower kinetic energy than their first excited state and so therefore aren't moving. However, as soon as they got anywhere near any another atom, a diamagnetic force would kick in, causing the once motionless atom to be set in motion again.

What is the effect of heat on liquied?
The effect of heat on anything (gas, solid or liquid) is the same. Heat is energy and the application of energy to a system will increase the motion of the molecules in that system.
What is thermal energy?
related to the motion of molecules

How does the motion of the gas molecules change?
Gas molecules change their motion when they bounce into the surfaces of their containers. If the surfaces absorb the impact, then energy is transfered out of the system and particle speed decreases.
How do you explain the increase in pressure in a closed system when temperature is increased?
Since the temperature is increased, the molecules start moving to and fro... which tends increase in speed of the molecule.. such that the increase in temperature is directly proportional to the speed of the molecules by which the pressure will also increase...
What is the separation of particles as heat is added which causes an increase in the size of the substance?
Whenever heat is added to the system, we increase the average kinetic energy of molecules. Increasing the K.E. of molecules cause the molecules to move further apart and collide back even more violently. This can cause size of the substance to increase.
Why do substance s expand when energy is added to them as heat?
When heat is added to a system, it increases the kinetic energy of the molecules. Increased K.E in system causes molecules to move further away from each other. This causes system to increase in volume. Significant increase in volume might not occur but at microscopic level it definitely changes.
What happens to the volume of gas or liquid s the temperature of a gas or liquid increases?
When heat is added to the system, we increase the average kinetic energy of molecules making up that system. When we increase the temperature, molecules undergo more rapid collisions and therefore takes up more volume. Molecules in solid state of matter has the least kinetic energy.
How according to le châtelier's principle how will a pressure increase affect a gaseous system?
The total number of gas molecules will decrease.
Is it possible for a frictional force to increase the mechanical energy of a system?
your question is not clear but fro what i could understand, i can tell you that frictional force always opposes motion of mechanical system ( so it would decrease the system's mechanical energy) therefore i can never increase it.
