No, gas contracts or decreases in volume when cooled because the molecules lose kinetic energy and move closer together. This decrease in volume causes the gas to contract and take up less space.

Why does a gass expand when heated and contract when cooled?

When a gas is heated up, the particles within the gas start to move faster, going farther apart (expansion). When a gas is cooled, the particles slow down and it starts to condense (contract), and if cooled enough, into a liquid.


What if the gas volume is confined to an expandable container What would happen to the gas volume if it is cooled?

If you cool a gas then its volume shrinks. As the container is expand/contactable, the container will also shrink.

Oil expand or contract when heated?

Oil does expand when heated and contracts when cooled.


When a gas undergoes adiabatic expansion it gets cooled due to?

the decrease in pressure causing the gas to expand and do work on its surroundings. This work requires energy, which is taken from the internal energy of the gas, leading to a decrease in temperature. This cooling effect is a result of the conservation of energy in an adiabatic process.


Does jelly expand when being cooled and left to set?

No jelly does not expand because its particles are not being frozen.

Does magma expand when cooled?

No It Contracts. Unless there is some kind of gas which would make it form Bubbles. But no magma doesn't Expand It CONTRACTS! Contracts- Making Something smaller, pushing it together compressing it :)
