As heat is added to a substance, the particles in the substance gain kinetic energy and move faster. This increased movement causes the particles to vibrate and collide more frequently, leading to an expansion of the substance.

If you add heat energy to a substance what happens to the speed of the particle motion?

The particle speed increases.The energy increases; the speed increases.


How does temperature or heat energy affect particle movement?

Temperature is a measure of particle movement. An increase of temperature, in a sense is an increase of the average movement of the particles within the substance, to include vibrations, spins, and lateral movement.


What happens to atoms of A substance when heat is added?

When heat is added to a substance, the molecules and atoms vibrate faster.


Is the speed of the particles in a substance changes when the temperature changes?

Yes, in fact, particle movement is what heat is.


What happens to a liquid when heat is added to it?

it bubbled, evaporates,


What is it called when you transfer heat from one particle of matter to another without the movement of matter itself?

conduction


What happens to molecule movement when heat is removed?

goes slower


As heat energy is added to a liquid do the particles increase or decrease in movement?

As heat energy is supplied to a liquid, its temperature rises. The rise of temperature causes a rise in the kinetic energy of the particles; which happens when the speed of the particles increases.


What is the transfer of heat from particle to particle called?

the process by which heat can be transffered from one particle of matter to another is called conduction.in this process ,,the heat absorbed at one particle is transferred to a neighbouring particle contrary to the process called convection where the particles move themselves .an example of conduction : when u heat a rod at one end , after sometime u can feel the heat at the other end as well.


How does heat travel by conduction?

Heat, on a molecular or atomic level, is kinetic energy; fast moving particles are literally hotter. So, if a fast moving particle collides with a slower particle, there will be an exchange of energy. We know from basic physics that force equals mass times acceleration, so when a force is applied to a particle, that particle will accelerate. That is how heat is transferred particle by particle. All of this happens on such a small, sub-microscopic scale, that we do not see the mechanics of it, we just see heat being conducted.


What does the heating and cooling of molecules do?

Changes the movement of the molecules as the heat is added and subtracted.


How is energy passed from particle to particle during heat conduction?

As a particle absorbs the energy (heat) it begins to move and vibrate faster. This increased vibration and movement causes it to bump into surrounding particles more, passing the energy onto them. As more particles get bumped, more particles start to move in turn bumping their neighbors and conducting the energy or heat through the substance.
