On heating any substance get more energy and due to that its bonds breaksing process starts.

Most solids expand when heated, a familiar phenomenon with many practical implications. Among the rare exceptions to this rule, the compound zirconium tungstate stands out by virtue of the enormous temperature range over which it exhibits so-called "negative thermal expansion," contracting as it heats up and expanding as it cools, and because it does so uniformly in all directions.

Do all objects expand when heated?

No, not all objects expand when heated. Most objects do expand when heated, but there are exceptions such as water between 0°C and 4°C, which contracts when heated. The expansion or contraction of an object when heated depends on its material properties.


Which substance shrinks on heating?

Most substances expand when heated, but water is an exception. Water contracts when heated from 0°C to 4°C before expanding as it heats up further.


What substance does not expand on heating?

For example pure silicon doesn't expand in a given range of temperature. Also a mixture of amorphous and crystalline quartz has a thermal expansion coefficient near zero ("Zerodur" from Schott). But the majority of materials suffer thermal expansion.
