How does a substance change from one state of matter to another?

A substance changes from one state of matter to another by either gaining or losing energy. For example, to change from a solid to a liquid, energy is added to break the intermolecular bonds. To change from a liquid to a gas, more energy is added to overcome the forces of attraction between the molecules.


What happens when heat is added to a substance?

well this isn't a specific question you see there is 2 different kind of substances ; For example:... solid : when heat is added to a solid it becomes a liquid liquid: when heat is added to a liquid it becomes a gas! for example water > if you add heat it will hot add or take away chemicals!


How do you change water into water vapour?

By heating the water. Boiling it, which would turn it into steam (a gas). The process of changing liquid water into a gas is called evaporation. Energy is added to the liquid water - generally in the form of heat. When enough energy is added, it allows the most energetic molecules at the surface of the liquid to break free of the liquid and enter the gas phase. The more energy that is added, the more water molecules will have enough energy to move into the gas phase. If enough energy is added, all the molecules will leave the liquid and from then on adding energy will just make the gas warmer. Another way to change liquid water into gas is to drop the pressure above the liquid. In this case, it takes less energy for the molecules in the liquid to get away from the liquid so some of them will already be energetic enough to get away.


How does temperature change during boiling?

The process that occurs during boiling of liquid is energizing of water molecules (H2O) to give them excessive energy for excitement to change their form to gas from liquid. This energy can be provided by heating and electric current. In the liquid state, atoms and molecules are bound together by strong intermolecular forces as compared to gases.While boiling a liquid we provide heat to the molecules whereby their kinetic energy is enhanced and they now have enough energy to overcome the cohesive forces and escape from the liquid surface hence changing into gas.This process is called evaporation.


What are the three phases of water How does water change from one phase to another?

The three phases of water are, liquid, solid and gas. Water changes from liquid to solid by Freezing. It changes from liquid to gas by Evaporation. It changes from solid to gas by Sublimation. It changes from solid to liquid by Melting. It changes from gas to liquid by Condensation.

When you add energy to matter What happens?

when you add thermal energy to matter, the matter starts moving faster.


What is needed for matter to change states?

For matter to change states, energy must be added or removed. In a solid-liquid phase change, energy is added to break intermolecular forces. In a liquid-gas phase change, energy is added to overcome intermolecular forces and increase kinetic energy.


How are states of matter and changes in energy related?

When thermal energy is added or removed, the state of matter changes to another eg. solid becomes liquid and liquid becomes gas.


What happens to matter to when you add thermal energy?

When thermal energy is added to matter, the particles within the matter gain kinetic energy and move faster. This increased movement causes the particles to spread out, leading to a change in phase (e.g., solid to liquid or liquid to gas) or an increase in temperature. Ultimately, thermal energy causes matter to change its physical state or temperature.


What happens to states of matter when you remove thermal energy?

When thermal energy is added the matter goes slower


As energy is added matter changes from a solid to liquid is called?

melting and from a solid to gas ,as in dry ice, it is sublimating


What happens if energy is added to a liquid at 20 Celsius?

If energy is added to a liquid at 20 Celsius, the temperature of the liquid will increase. This can lead to a phase change if the added energy is sufficient to raise the liquid's temperature above its boiling point, causing it to vaporize. If the added energy is not enough for a phase change, the increased temperature can affect the liquid's properties such as viscosity.


How is the state of mattr related to the amount of energy in a substance?

The state of matter is related to the amount of energy in a substance through the kinetic energy of its particles. As a substance gains energy, its particles move faster, causing a change in state (solid to liquid, liquid to gas) as the intermolecular forces are overcome. This change in energy affects the arrangement and movement of particles, determining the state of matter.


What phase is produced if energy is added to a solid?

When energy is added to a solid, it can undergo a phase transition to a liquid state, a process known as melting. As the solid absorbs heat, its particles gain kinetic energy, causing them to vibrate more vigorously until they break free from their fixed positions. This transformation from solid to liquid occurs at a specific temperature known as the melting point.


When energy is added to liquid what does it change into?

The liquid is changed in a gas.


What happens when energy is taken away from matter?

The substance's particals will start slowing down and come closer together. As kinetic energy is removed from a substance, it will do the opposite as when kinetic energy is added to a substance.


What happens when thermal energy is added to a liquid?

When thermal energy is added to a liquid, the average kinetic energy of the liquid molecules increases, causing them to move faster and further apart. This results in an increase in the liquid's temperature, leading to its phase transition into a gas if the added energy is sufficient to overcome the intermolecular forces holding the liquid together.
