What else can I help you with?
Does conduction only occur between solids?
No, conduction can occur in solids, liquids, and gases. In solids, conduction happens through direct contact between particles. In liquids and gases, it occurs through the transfer of heat energy by the movement of particles.
Why are liquids more heavier than solids?
Liquids are generally heavier than solids because the molecules in liquids are more densely packed together and have more mass per unit volume compared to solids. Additionally, liquids tend to have a higher density than solids, making them heavier when compared in equal volumes.
Why are solids, liquids, and gases considered matter?
Solids, liquids, and gases are considered matter because they have mass and occupy space. Matter is anything that has mass and takes up space, and solids, liquids, and gases all meet these criteria.
Conduction cannot takeplace in a liquid?
Conduction can occur in liquids, although it is typically slower than in solids. In liquids, conduction happens as particles transfer heat energy through collisions, but the process is less efficient due to the more random arrangement of particles compared to solids.
Why do solids heat up faster than liquids or gases?
Since most of the time we are concerned with heat being transferred via conduction, the denser the material, the easier it is to conduct heat. Except for the rare anomaly (think ice vs liquid water) solids are denser than their corresponding liquid forms. All that is a gross simplification of course. Many liquids heat quite a bit better than solids and convection (which can occur in liquids but not solids) can greatly aid in the speed of "heating up", so the generalization that solids heat up faster than liquids is only a tendency rather than a rule.
What is it called when energy is added to liquids and solids?
Heating.
What happens to solid liquids and gases when they are heated?
Solids ---heat---> Liquids ---more heat---> gases
What happens to the volume of solids liquids and gases when they are cool?
they all contract.
Why is conduction slower in gases than liquids and solids?
Solids are better conductors than liquids so they solid is faster than a lquid also because since it is a better conductor is molecules move faster heating the object
What is the change of Solids to liquids to solids again called?
Solids to Liquids (Melting) Liquids turning back into a Solid (Freezing) ((SCF))
What item has a fixed volume solids liquids or gases?
solids and liquids
Do all liquids expand when heated?
Liquids expand more than solids on heating
Why do liquids expand on heating more than solids?
The answer is a lot more simple than you may imagine, it is simply because the atoms and molecules in liquids havd more freedom to move about than in solids
Is convection a chemical reaction?
no it is a type of conduction that can happen in liquids and gases, conduction happens in solids, and radiation happens in gases
How is gas different from solids and liquids?
Both liquids and Solids have definite volumes
What do both liquids and solids fix?
Solids and liquids both have fixed volumes.
Are lubricants solids or liquids?
liquids
