Heat gives more energy to the atoms, so they move around quicker.

Why does the temperature gauge needle goes up quickly when running on the highway?

As engine has to work hard and engine RPM are high its temperature rises and water pump also works faster and hot water reaches temperature sensor fast and suddenly needle goes up.


Does sound travel more slowly through a given medium with a low temperature or high temperature?

Sound travels more slowly through a medium when it is at a low temperature because in a low temperature the molecules move slower and in a high temperature the molecules move faster. For Example: ice that is frozen and boiled water in ice the water doesn't move as fast so the molecules were slower than in the boiled water. HOPE I HELPED YOU!!


Does water freeze faster than coffee?

Yes because salt is a substance that has high salinity and high temperature. Which means, salt will not freeze, unless you give it days or a week. Soda can freeze slower than salt, but not faster than water. Water probably is the fastest thing that freezes.


Where do sound waves travel at their fastest?

Sound travel faster in solids than in liquids, and faster in liquids than in gases. Sound travels faster in water than in the air but in solids it travels about eight times faster. Sound travels at the fastest speed in steel. In solids it travel faster in a hot surface, the particles move faster if the solid is cold its slower the movement.


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.

Why salt dissolves faster in cold and hot water?

At high temperature the crystalline structure is affected, it is less stable and the solubility is greater.


Why does magnesium dissolve quicker in hot water?

Magnesium dissolves quicker in hot water because the increased temperature provides more energy for the magnesium particles to break apart and interact with the water molecules. This higher energy level causes the magnesium ions to separate from the solid metal more easily, leading to faster dissolution.


Is it possible that tap water dissolves soap better than distilled water?

no it is impossible....by heating at a high temperature it seems to be possible


Will water evaporate faster or slower in a warm spot or cold spot?

Evaporation is faster at high temperature.


Why does boiling water evaporate faster than regular water?

A high temperature favors evaporation.


How is evaporation done through water bath?

Evaporation is faster at high temperature.


What makes salt dissolve faster hot or cold water?

Hot waterWhen substances have a high temperature, they have more energy. The more energy molecules have, the faster they move. The molecules in hot water move faster than cold water because of the higher energy. Because the molecules of hot water move faster, they can more easily break apart other molecules of a different substance when they come into contact. The fast moving water molecules can break apart the bonds between the salt crystals so they become dissolved into the water.


Why instant coffee dissolves faster in hot water than in cold water?

Most substances dissolve faster at higher temperatures. A high temperature means that the random thermal motion of the molecules is faster. Therefore, the impacts between colliding molecules are more forceful and more able to dislodge a molecule from its attachment to other molecules in the solid state, allowing it to dissolve.


How does the number of watts in a light bulb affect how fast water evaporates?

At high temperature (high power in watts) water is evaporated faster.


The solubility is the substance that dissolves to form a solution?

Solubility is the maximum amount of a substance that can dissolve in a given solvent at a specific temperature and pressure. It is a physical property that varies depending on the solute, solvent, temperature, and pressure.


Is diffusion faster on heating?

Yes, diffusion is faster at high temperature.


What causes water to evaporate faster?

Water evaporates faster when the temperature is higher, the surface area of the water is larger, the air is dry, and if there is a strong air current. These conditions increase the rate of evaporation by providing more energy to water molecules to escape into the air.
