Why do faster moving particles increase the rate of reaction?

Faster moving particles have more kinetic energy, which increases the likelihood of successful collisions between reactant molecules. This results in more frequent and energetic collisions, leading to a higher rate of reaction.


What type of energy makes lighting and heating possible?

Electricity is the type of energy that makes lighting and heating possible.


What makes an object hot or cold?

An object is hot or cold based on its temperature, which is a measure of the average kinetic energy of its particles. When particles move faster, they generate more heat, making the object feel hot. Conversely, when particles move slower, less heat is produced, causing the object to feel cold.


What makes matter expend when it is heated and contract when it is cooled?

Heating causes matter to expand because the increased temperature leads to the atoms or molecules moving faster and farther apart, creating more space between them. Conversely, cooling causes matter to contract as the decreased temperature decreases the kinetic energy of the particles, causing them to move closer together. This shift in spacing between particles results in changes in the volume and density of the matter.


Which particle travels the fastest?

There are some particles that travel at the speed of light - mainly, the photon (the particle that makes up light), and the (hypothetical) graviton. No particles are known to travel faster than that, and it doesn't seem likely that this is at all possible.

Why does a liquid and rate of evaporation increase when the liquid is heated?

Heating a liquid increases the kinetic energy of its particles, causing them to move faster. This increased movement makes it easier for the liquid particles to escape the surface and evaporate into the air at a faster rate.


What does temperature do to particles?

it makes them move faster or vibrate


Does increased energy increased that particles are moving faster r slower?

Increased energy makes particles move faster.


What would heating do to the rate of diffusion of a salt crystal?

the rate of diffusion increases. the increase in the temperature makes the molucules move faster giving space for diffusion to occur and the amount and the time increases.


Heating a solid makes it melt terms of particles?

The particles are moving away from one another during melting.


Why do you think heat would cause a solute to dissolve faster?

Heat makes the atoms of the molecules to move faster in a solution, thus making the solute to dissolve quicker. It's the same that occurs when you stir a solution using a spoon. You are mechanically speeding the process. By heating you are physically speeding the dissolution process.


What does heat do to the particles in ice?

When heat is applied to ice, it increases the kinetic energy of the particles, causing them to vibrate faster and break the bonds that hold them in their solid state. This results in the ice melting into liquid water.


When heat is removed from a substance the particles start moving faster?

No, heat makes the particles move faster. If you remove the heat the particles will start moving slower as it cools down.


What makes patrticles spread out faster in hot water then in cold water?

In warmer water, particles generally have more energy. This makes them move faster, and so spread out faster.


Why does heating increase the speed at a solute dissolves in water?

It makes the water molecules move faster.


How is the microwave used in heating?

it generates energy from light and heat. Which causes food to have moisture in it. It makes food cook faster or defrost faster.


How does the behaviour of particles change ass energy is added to particles?

When heat is added to a particle, it will get more exited and move faster. The more heat you add, the faster the particles will move, and the further form one another they will be. Therefore, adding energy to the particles will also increase the spaces between them.
