What else can I help you with?
What happens when the temperature of a substance decreases significantly A. Most substances will expand. B. Most substances will gain atoms. C. Most substances will contract. D. Most substances will d?
C. Most substances will contract. When the temperature of a substance decreases significantly, its particles lose kinetic energy, causing them to move closer together. This results in a decrease in volume, known as contraction.
What is it called when different substances expand by different amounts when heated?
The coefficient of _____ expansion. It depends what kind of expansion you are talking about.
Do metals expand when they are cooled?
No, most substances contract with cooling, only some exotic substances (eg water) expands when cooled.
Do cooled substances expand?
No, cooled substances typically contract or shrink in volume due to a decrease in temperature causing the particles to move more slowly and come closer together. This is known as thermal contraction.
Which is the only thing which contract on heating?
Most substances will expand when they are heated. A few substances will contract; one example is water between zero and 4 degrees centigrade.
What are substances that expand and contract called?
Materials that expand and contract in response to changes in temperature are typically referred to as thermal expansion materials. These materials expand when heated and contract when cooled, which can be useful in various applications such as in thermostats, bimetallic strips, and expansion joints.
