What state of matter does conduction occur in?

All three, solid liquid and gas.


Can energy be transferred by conduction even when no matter is present?

No, conduction requires the presence of matter for energy to be transferred. Energy transfer by conduction occurs through direct contact between particles in a material, so without matter, conduction cannot take place.


Can conduction pass through matter but the matter does not move?

yep


What does conduction and convection uses that radiation does not?

Matter.


Which state of matter does conduction work the best?

Conduction works best in solids because the particles are closely packed together, allowing for efficient transfer of energy through collisions between particles. In liquids and gases, the particles are more spread out, which can impede the transfer of energy through conduction.


What is the transfer of energy through matter by direct collisions of vibrating particles is called?

Conduction


The transfer of thermal energy in matter with no overall transfer of matter is called?

conduction


Why does the energy from the sun travel to Earth by radiation instead of by convection or conduction.?

Convection and conduction require matter to travel through, and there is no matter between Earth and the Sun


Compare and contrast conduction and convection?

Conduction is the transfer of heat through direct contact between materials, while convection is the transfer of heat through the movement of a fluid (liquid or gas). Conduction occurs in solids and liquids, while convection occurs in fluids. In conduction, heat transfer is slower but can happen in any state of matter, while in convection, heat transfer is faster but is limited to fluids.


What kind of heat transfer only by matter?

conduction


Does conduction involve the movement of matter?

Yes, conduction involves the transfer of heat through direct contact between particles in a material. The kinetic energy is transferred from the faster-moving particles to the slower-moving particles without the actual movement of matter.


Why can't a condution occur in a space?

Conduction requires particles to physically touch to transfer heat. In a vacuum (like outer space), there aren't enough particles for conduction to happen efficiently. Heat transfer in space primarily occurs through radiation, where electromagnetic waves carry heat energy.
