In general, intermolecular bonds are "stretched" by the energy of faster moving molecules. This makes the material larger when heated. Similarly, decreasing external pressure will allow the bonds artifically compressed to expand. Other than that, if your stretch a material in one axis mechanically (Hooke's law), it gets smaller / thinner off axis. As if the material's volume were a constant (up to a point).

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.
Does matter expands or contrast when heated?
Matter usually expands when heated.
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.
What happens to your chest when you breathe in?
It expands
What happens to water as it frezzes?
It expands.
What happens to the volume of matter when it expands?
It increases.
What happens to all matter when heat?
the atoms use the energy to move the molecules

Does matter expands or contrast when heated?
Matter usually expands when heated.
What happens to the particles ina gas went they are heated?
The particles start moving faster and the matter expands.
If matter expands to fill the volume of its container it is?
if matter expands to fill the volume of its container its a suspension.
If matter expands to fill the volume of its container it is a?
if matter expands to fill the volume of its container its a suspension.
What does matter do when it is heated?
Matter expands when it is heated.
What does most matter do when heated?
Most matter EXPANDS when heatedmost matter expands when heated
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.
Matter expands or contracts to fill the space available?
Liquid Not liquids,gases.
Most matter when heated?
The individual particles vibrate/move faster. The matter as a whole expands.
