It depends on what is also happening. According to PV=nRT where P is pressure, V is volume, n is the number of moles, and R is a constant, as Temperature increases, Volume will too. But the area of a substance is not physically accurate because area is 2-dimensional while volume is 3-dimensional and only 3-dimensional objects can have temperature changes because 2-dimensional objects only exist on paper. Hope that helps!

The question implies selecting from a list - a list which is not provided with the question.

Some of the things that usually occur when temperature increases include:

  • density decreases
  • reactions increase in rate
  • equilibrium shifts towards products or reactants depending on whether the reaction is endothermic or exothermic
  • average translational speed of molecules increases
  • wavelength of emitted radiation changes (such as steel going from red-hot to white-hot)
  • solubility of gases in liquids decreases
  • solubility of solids in liquids increases
  • gases/vapors in equilibrium become enriched with higher boiling point components
  • solids become more flexible
  • conductivity of metals decreases
  • if the temperature is your own body temperature, your mom may let you stay home from school
  • ... feel free to add other known effects of temperature increases
