Why do object expand?

Objects contract or expand depending on the temperature. Cold makes things contract, heat makes things expand. However, there are some exceptions. For example, water expands when it turns to ice. This is due to the process of crystallization. The reason that objects expand and contract is found at the atomic level. When an object is warm, its molecules move faster and spread out, making that object expand. However, when an object is cold, the atoms slow down and move back together, making the object contract.
