Sure there can be conduction, but quite often, most of the heat will be transposrted by convection, not conduction.

Why particles vibrates?

Particles vibrate because of heat being present


What can particles of a liquid do that the particles of a solid can't do?

The particles of a solid can only vibrate about their fixed positions while the particles of a liquid can vibrate, rotate and translate (move from 1 place to another) within the liquid.


Can sound travel in a vacum?

No because there are no particles to vibrate


How do particles conduct heat?

When particles receive energy (like heat) usually it causes the particle to vibrate. If this particle is next to another particle, the vibration causes the particle next to it to vibrate. This vibration is the heat energy being given off, and colliding with the next particle, which then collides with the next particle, then the next, etc.This is the case with solid and liquid particles, however gas particles use convection, which is where the gas particle hits another particle, and so transfers some of the energy (such as heat) to that particle.Conduction ConvectionA;vibrate;B;vibrate:C A->->->;collide;B->->;collide;C

Particles vibrate faster when they are cooled?

Particles vibrate faster when they are heated.


What changes of states particles vibrate in place?

When a body freezes, its particles vibrate in place.


What causes all sounds to occur?

You can hear sounds because the sund particles vibrate with air particles and eventually travel to your ear and it then vibrates your eardrum and sends messages to your brain. I a vacuum sound can't be heard because there is no air for the particles to vibrate with. xxx


Do particles vibrate slower when heated?

No, they vibrate faster.


How is heat transferred between two materials in conduction?

The particles vibrate and cause the particles next to it to vibrate and so on until the vibrations transfer to the next material. This works better in solids because the particles are more tightly packed.


Why does rocks not visibly vibrate but particles that make up rock constantly move?

The reason rocks do not visibly move is because the rock particles are so small because they were broken down


Causes particles to vibrate in place?

the thermal energy is what causes the particles to vibrate.
