In general, a solid object will expand when heated. That means that it's volume increases, but because the object's mass (weight) does not increase, the density is reduced. the equation is Mass/Volume.
Like many rules however water (as ice) does not follow this exactly. Ice expands slightly as it cools below 70 K

What happens to the density of matter when the matter is heated?
In almost all cases, matter expands and becomes less dense when it is heated. Melting ice is an exception.
What happens to the density of matter when heated?
In almost all cases, the matter expands. Density = mass / volume. When volume increases, the density decreases, because the mass is fixed.
When the air in a balloon is heated what happens to the density?
it becomes low
What happens to water at 4 degrees Celsius is heated slightly?

What happens to matter when heated?
When matter is heated it will expand
What happens to oil density when heated?
increases
What happens to the density of objects when the get heated?
Raising the temperature the density is lowered.
Rubber is heated what happens to it's density?
It's density will decrease.
What happens to the density of a gas sample collected in a balloon as the sample is heated?
The air becomes less dense as it expands making the balloon appear to self inflate.
What happens to matter as it is heated and cooled.?
When heated it get larger and when you freeze it the matter gets smaller with an exeption to ice
What happens to the density of solids liquids and gases when they are heated?
they are compromised.
When the air in a balloon is heated what happens to the density?
it becomes low
What happens to matter when it is heated SCIENCE?
It will expand.
What happens to the density of a heated iron block?
The density will decrease because the heated metal contracts and its particles slow down.
