When molecules of something are heated, they absorb the thermal energy and start to vibrate. When enough thermal energy is applied, then the chemical bonds break, and the atoms and molecules are now moving freely. If metal is heated for long enough at the right temperatures, then the molecules will disconnect, move freely, turning the metal into a liquid. But if its a type of fuel like wood or coal, then molecules rise to the air and immediately react to the oxygen causing an instant combustin reaction. Im 13 and hope this helped.
The molecules in side move or spread apart
The idea that explains the increase in molecular motion with heating is the concept of thermal energy. As an object is heated, energy is transferred to its molecules, causing them to vibrate, rotate, and move more rapidly. This increased kinetic energy leads to a higher temperature and greater molecular motion. Consequently, the faster movement of molecules results in changes in the physical properties of the object, such as expansion.
They don't necessarily move to another place. However, the movement of the molecules INSIDE the object speeds up. (:
When an object is heated and its temperature increases, the atoms within the object move more rapidly, causing them to push farther apart. This expansion results in an increase in the volume of the object.
When molecules are heated, their kinetic energy increases, causing them to vibrate and move more rapidly. This can lead to a change in state from solid to liquid or liquid to gas, depending on the amount of heat applied. In some cases, heating molecules can also cause chemical reactions to occur, leading to the formation of new compounds.
Atoms or molecules when they are heated.
The molecules in an object begin to move because of the heat. The moving of the molecules cause the space between them to expand. That is how blacksmiths are able to change the shape of metals.
new molecules starts to form
As an object is heated, its molecules gain more kinetic energy, causing them to move faster. This increase in molecular motion results in higher average speeds of the molecules, which is why the object feels hotter to touch.
It expands.
they get exited and move faster than cold molecules
The liquid molecules are transformed in gas molecules.
The liquid molecules are transformed in gas molecules.
they get farther apart.
what happens to water molecules when they are heated
The magnitude of the vibration of its molecules gets increased.
the hot-air molecules bang on each other harder.
