Do all solids expand by the same amount when heated through same temperature?
no , all solids do not expand by the same amount when heated through same temperature. it depends upon the coefficient of its linear expansion. We define avergae co-efficient of linear expansion in the temperature range deltaT as α=(1/L)(ΔL/ΔT) where L is initial length of the solid at the temperature T.. It varies from material to material , higher the value of alpha , it expands more..
Do liquids expand and contract at the same rate?
No, liquids do not expand and contract at the same rate. Different liquids have different coefficients of expansion, which determine how much they expand or contract with changes in temperature. This property is important when designing systems where temperature changes may affect the volume of the liquid.
Why do solids expand when heated even though their mass does not change?
When solids are heated, the atoms or molecules within them vibrate faster and with greater energy, causing them to spread out slightly. This increase in vibration leads to the expansion of the solid even though the mass remains the same.
What do the words expand and contract mean?
contract is when an object is the same size as always expands is when it gets bigger
Which is the only thing which contract on heating?
Most substances will expand when they are heated. A few substances will contract; one example is water between zero and 4 degrees centigrade.
How quickly do gases expand compared with solids and liquids when heated the same amount?
cheater! go ask mrs. s!

Do solids expand at the same rate?
No all solids do not expand at same rate because some solid expand at less temperature and some solids expand at less temperature. For example if we take iron and plastic iron expands at high temperature and plastic melt at less temperature(at candle light also).
How do solids usually behave when heated?
Their volume increases - that is to say, the solids expand. However, their mass stays the same.
Do liquids expand and contract at the same rate?
No, liquids do not expand and contract at the same rate. Different liquids have different coefficients of expansion, which determine how much they expand or contract with changes in temperature. This property is important when designing systems where temperature changes may affect the volume of the liquid.
Why water vapor takes up more space than the same amount of liquid?
Gases have no fixed volume - they will expand, or to a certain extent contract, to fit their container.
What gas does not t expand or contract?
Helium does not expand or contract significantly with changes in temperature or pressure due to its low density, making it useful for many applications where a consistent volume is required.
Do all gases expand the same amount?
no, cuz there is a thing called the expansivity of a substance that tells us how much a particular substance will expand over 1 degree change in temprature
Why do solids expand when heated even though their mass does not change?
When solids are heated, the atoms or molecules within them vibrate faster and with greater energy, causing them to spread out slightly. This increase in vibration leads to the expansion of the solid even though the mass remains the same.
Why does liquid and solids keep the same volume?
They don't. Some liquids expand when they become solid and others shrink, while some do maintain the same volume.
What happens to the volume of solids liquids and gases when they cool?
Solids- stays the same Liquids- stays the same Gases- decreases You can use the formula PV/T=P2V2/T2 P=initial pressure V=initial volume T=initial temp P2=final pressure V2=final volume T2=final temp
What do the words expand and contract mean?
contract is when an object is the same size as always expands is when it gets bigger
