When a solid substance gains enough thermal energy, it melts.

When we consider Solutions, say Ice in Water, we see both - simultaneously the melting ice gains thermal energy from the water while the water loses thermal energy to the ice body.

Does your body gain or lose thermal energy if your body temperature is 37 degrees Celsius and the temperature around you is 25 degrees Celsius?

You will lose thermal energy.Heat (energy) will always flow from warmer to cooler.


What happens to the particles when thermal energy is added or removed?

When thermal energy is added to a substance, the particles gain kinetic energy and move faster, increasing the substance's temperature. When thermal energy is removed, the particles lose kinetic energy and slow down, causing the temperature to decrease.


Does a substance gain o lose thermal energy when it evaporates?

A substance gains thermal energy when it evaporates, as energy is required to break the intermolecular forces holding the molecules together and allow them to escape into the gaseous phase.


Does your body gain or lose thermal energy if your body temperature is 37 degrees C and the temperature around is 25 degrees C?

Heat will naturally flow from hotter objects to colder objects. If heat flows OUT OF your body, you will LOSE that heat energy (thermal energy).

If your body temperature is 37c and you are sitting in a room which has the temperature of 25c does your body gain or lose thermal energy?

Heat (thermal energy) goes from the warmer thing to the colder thing. So, since your body is warmer than the room, your body loses thermal energy to the room.


When do most substances lose or gain energy?

Most substances lose or gain energy when their temperature changes.


Does a gas lose or gain thermal energy in condensation?

The gas begins to cool down, and lose thermal energy, and moves up in the ladder of the 3 states of matter. Gasses condense into liquids, liquids turn into solids. The higher up you go, the less thermal energy the object has.
