Heating up matter makes the space between atoms expand, and the

atoms then gain energy and move faster. Solids will change to liquids, and liquids to gas.

What does the addition or subtraction of heat have to do with whether or not a substance is a solid liquid gas or plasma?

The addition of heat can change the state of a substance by providing energy to overcome intermolecular forces. For example, adding heat to a solid can melt it into a liquid, and adding more heat can vaporize it into a gas. Conversely, removing heat can cause a gas to condense into a liquid or freeze into a solid. Plasma is a state of matter where high heat energy strips electrons from atoms, creating a highly ionized gas.


Is energe a matter?

"Energy" is not matter itself, but rather a property of matter that allows it to do work or produce heat. Matter is made up of particles such as atoms and molecules, while energy is the ability to cause change in matter.


If heat is removed from a substance how will atoms behave?

Kinetic theory of matter: All matter is made up of atoms and molecules that are constantly moving. When heat is added to a substance, the molecules and atoms vibrate faster. As atoms vibrate faster, the space between atoms increases. ... They contract when they lose their heat.

What kind of energy is generated when atoms cause heat?

The energy which is released when atoms cause heat is thermal energy.


What causes a change in state?

A change in state can be caused by either adding or removing energy from a substance. For example, adding heat can cause a solid to melt into a liquid, and removing heat can cause a liquid to freeze into a solid. Pressure changes can also cause a substance to change state, such as turning a gas into a liquid by increasing pressure.
