One of the particle theory's points is that there are unseen spaces between particles, another is that particles are always moving. Therefore, combining those two points, the more the particles move, the bigger the spaces between them which is to say that, take oxygen and Mercury for example, oxygen is a gas at room temperature, therefore, the particles are moving faster than that of mercury, which is liquid at room temperature, meaning that, they have different densities

Does sugar dissolve faster in cold or hot water?

Hot water. Its because sugar has the ability to melt due to higher temperatures. It will dissolve in cold water, it just takes more time. Temperature is one of the factors that influences the reaction rate between substances. It measures the average speed of particles, so if the temperature is high (in hot water), the particles will move faster and collide with other particles more forcefully. So when you add the sugar in hot water, the particles are going to dissolve faster because of the increased movement of water molecules. They collide more forcefully and more often than in cold water, increasing the rate of reaction as well as increasing the amount of sugar dissolved in the water.


Are molecules in hot water different then molecules in cold water?

If you have the same volume of both then there are in cold water more molecules.


Does hot water rise and cold water sink?

HOT rises COLD sinks


Can you put hot or cold water on shingles?

yes you can put hot and cold water on shingels


Does hot water or cold water particles move faster?

hot water molecules move faster with food coloring.you can experiment it with the help of following steps:-Fill the glasses with the same amount of water, one cold and one hot.Put one drop of food coloring into both glasses as quickly as possible.Watch what happens to the food coloring.If you watch closely you will notice that the food coloring spreads faster throughout the hot water than in the cold. The molecules in the hot water move at a faster rate, spreading the food coloring faster than the cold water molecules which mover

What happened to the kinetic energy of the hot water and cold water particles?

When hot water and cold water are mixed, the kinetic energy of the hot water particles is transferred to the cold water particles through collisions. This transfer of energy causes the overall temperature of the mixture to become more uniform as the particles mix and reach thermal equilibrium.


How fast do tiny water particles move?

it depends if its in a hot or cold temperature. hot = FAST cold = SLOW


How can hot water flaot on cold water?

hot water has a lower density because since it is hot, all the particles repel from each other. therefore, cold water has a greater density that hot water which results in the floating effect


Which particles have the most energy cold water or hot coffee?

Water, as it has smaller particles that are tightly bunched together. Coffee has very large particles, like alchohol.


Why does cold water not mix with hot water?

Cold water and hot water have different densities due to their different temperatures. When they are mixed together, the hot water rises and the cold water sinks, creating layers instead of being thoroughly mixed. This phenomenon is known as thermal stratification.


Will salt dissolve in hot or cold water faster?

Salt will dissolve faster in hot water compared to cold water. This is because the heat in the hot water speeds up the movement of the water molecules, allowing them to interact more readily with the salt particles and dissolve them quicker.


What is water temperature at different depths?

hot because when its cold it turn hot


Why does hot water taste different compared to cold water?

The difference in taste between hot and cold water is due to temperature affecting our taste buds and the solubility of substances in water. Hot water can enhance the release of flavors and aromas from substances in the water, making it taste different than cold water.


Why does powdered juice dissolves better in cold water than in hot water?

because it is refined and it has small particles...


How does the particles of hot water affect the particles of a spoon?

The hot water would conduct its heat to the part of the medal spoon in the water.

Does hot water freeze at a different ratev than cold water?

No hot water freezes, it has to cool off first.
