Perhaps coincidentally, that physical change is called "expansion".

Does the mass of a steel tube increase when it is heated from 30 degrees to 60 degrees?

When steel (or indeed anything) is heated its mass does not change. Volume is altered by cooling and heating. In this case the volume of the steel would increase.


Increase in volume due to heating?

When a substance is heated, its particles gain energy and move faster, causing them to spread out and increase in volume. This increase in volume is a result of the particles taking up more space as they move more rapidly. It is a common phenomenon observed in gases and liquids when they are heated.


What is the effect on the volume of a substance when thermal energy is added?

Adding heat to something generally increases its volume. In rare cases, adding heat to something like ice may actually decrease its volume. The increase in volume of a heated gas is much more significant than the increase in volume when solids and liquids are heated.


Does temperature affects the density?

Temprature affects the volume, since most objects expand when they are heated. And density is mass / volume.


How the temperature affects the density?

What will happen to a balloon's volume if its heated?

The kinetic energy of the particles inside the balloon increase. This then expands the volume of the balloon.


How does a change volume affect an objects density when mass stays the same?

With constant mass, a decrease in volume will increase the the density. Conversely, an increase in volume will decrease the density.
