What do substances do when heated because of the molecules?
they expand
Why does water expand at the equator?
Water expands at the equator due to the centrifugal force caused by the Earth's rotation. This force effectively bulges the water in that region, resulting in a slightly larger volume compared to water at the poles.
Can gases expand and be compressed?
Yes, gases can both expand and be compressed. When pressure is applied to a gas, its molecules are forced closer together, resulting in compression. Conversely, when the pressure is reduced, gases can expand to fill the available space due to their high kinetic energy and the significant distances between molecules. This behavior is described by gas laws such as Boyle's Law and Charles's Law.
How does heat maike objects expand?
Yes, the more temperature an object has the farther apart the molecules move.
Does heat make gas contract or expand?
Being made up of infra red rays which will move in all directions and refract when hitting paticles heat will always expand
When the pressure inside a container increases due to heat is it because molecules expand?
No, molecules do not expand but they DO move around quicker.
Will heat make a ball bounce higher?
Yes, because the gas molecules in the tennis ball expand. When the molecules expand there energy increases.
Why does breast milk shrink when frozen and expand when thawed?
Any liquid or solid shrinks when frozen; the molecules contract. Molecules expand when thawed.
What do substances do when heated because of the molecules?
they expand
Why do objects expands when heated?
They expand because their molecules vibrate more rapidly resulting in more space between the molecules which makes the object expand.
Will an aluminum door expand in the summer or winter?
It will expand in Summer as the heat makes the aluminum molecules move faster causing them to expand
In which state of matter do the particles expand to fill all the space?
In the gas state of matter the molecules are moving too fast to stick to other molecules. Because they are free floating the molecules expand to fill all of the space available.
Can gases expand or contract?
Yes, gases can both expand and contract. When heated, gases expand as the molecules move more rapidly, increasing the pressure and volume. Conversely, when cooled, gases contract as the molecules slow down, decreasing the pressure and volume.
In state of matter do the particles expand to fill all the space available?
In the gas state of matter the molecules are moving too fast to stick to other molecules. Because they are free floating the molecules expand to fill all of the space available.
Why not measure amounts of liquid when hot?
Heat = expansion. The water molecules expand when heated. The container will expand, and then the measurment will be off?
What happens to the water molecules when the air above gets cold?
the water molecules get cold and expand and turn into ice
Why is water less dense?
The water molecules expand when the temp. drops.
