There is a scientific explanation to why convection, and convection currents occur. Firstly, when the fluid is heated, the particles vibrate more and move further away from each other, decreasing the density of the fluid. This lighter fluid then rises above the denser fluid. While it is rising, the newly heated fluid cools, and this makes the particles oscillate less, making them closer together, and increasing the density of that part of the fluid, making it sink. This cycle is repeated to create a convection current

What explains how the particles in gases behave?
Kinetic Theory.
A sample of hydrogen gas will behave most like an ideal gas under the conditions of?
High temperature and low pressure. High temperature because this speeds up the rate of the molecules so there is less intermolecular forces of attraction between particles. Low pressure because the greater the distance of the particles and the less molecular forces of attraction between particles.
Is a boiling point higher than a melting point?
well acuttaly a boiling point is higher because the boiling point is at 100 degrees and like so a melting point is a 0 degrees and a boiling point the particles spread out quicker but the melting point the particles are a strong bond so cannot be squahsed and are at a lower rate of temprrature/heat
How does frozen pure water behave?
Pure water has a freezing temperature of 0 degrees and a boiling temperature of 100 degrees, unlike tap water which has impurities that can alter it's freezing and boiling point
What is the difference between evaporation and boiling in terms of the movement of the liquid's particles in each case?
In evaporation, only the particles at the surface of the liquid gain enough energy to escape as vapor, while the rest of the liquid remains relatively undisturbed. In boiling, the entire liquid is heated to the boiling point, causing rapid vaporization throughout the liquid and significant movement of particles.
How do melting particles behave?
The particles are moving rapidly
What is the motions of particles when it is boiling?
particles move randomely
What explains how the particles in gases behave?
Kinetic Theory.
What could be causing the presence of white particles in water after boiling?
The presence of white particles in water after boiling could be caused by minerals such as calcium or magnesium that have precipitated out of the water during the boiling process.
Electrons behave like what?
Electrons behave like particles and waves simultaneously, exhibiting wave-particle duality. They can exhibit wave-like interference patterns and particle-like behaviors such as interacting with other particles by exchanging photons.
How do particles behave in solid?
In a solid, particles are closely packed together and vibrate in fixed positions. They have a fixed shape and volume, and only have slight movements. The particles do not have enough energy to move around freely like in liquids or gases.
How do particles behave at its boiling point?
An extreme example of Brownian Motion. Energetic molecules would be repelling each other in agitation and colliding. Those that accumulate enough energy would escape as gas and vapor (steam). The energy of the particles is that they bounce off of each other making more and more energy
What happens to particles of water when they are boiling from a liquid to a gas?
vaporization
How does the vibration of particles change as the temperature moves between freezing and boiling?
The vibration of particles increase with the temperature.
Does salt increase boiling point?
Yes. Not by more than a few degrees Centigrade, though. It's a matter of adding particles to the water. The type of particles is largely irrelevant, but the particles must be heated as well, increasing the boiling point, depending on the amount of particles added.
Why do particles behave differently when observed?
Particles behave differently when observed due to the phenomenon known as wave-particle duality. This means that particles can exhibit both wave-like and particle-like behavior depending on how they are observed. When particles are observed, their wave-like properties collapse into a specific position or state, causing them to behave differently than when they are not being observed. This is a fundamental aspect of quantum mechanics and has been demonstrated through various experiments.
Are electrons waves or particles?
Electrons exhibit characteristics of both waves and particles, known as wave-particle duality. They can behave as waves in certain experiments and as particles in others.
