In a rural areas with no buildings or other structures, solar heat is absorbed by trees, grass and other plant life to create energy for plant growth. Compare that to a desert where the heat has nowhere to go during daylight hours.

Buildings replace plant-life and prevent heat from being absorbed so heat remains in the air. The buildings absorb solar heat and also release it back into the surrounding air.

In cities, people in buildings generate body heat. People use electrical equipment such as lights, household and other appliances, computer equipment and other machines, all of which generate a large amount of heat. Then we use air conditioning equipment to move the heat inside building into the surrounding air.

What a does a temperature increase cause the rate of a reaction to increase?

An increase in temperature typically causes the rate of a reaction to increase because it provides more energy to reactant molecules, allowing them to collide with greater force and frequency. This often leads to more successful collisions and faster conversion of reactants to products.


Does enzymatic action in a chemical reaction result in an increase in temperature?

Yes it can, but more commonly an increase in temperature increases enzymatic action.


What affect does urbanization has on temperature?

The primary affect urbanization has on temperature is to increase it overall. Because of the concentration of people, buildings, and equipment, nature is unable to dissipate all the heat as it normally would.


Which term describes in a material's volume due to an increase in temperature?

Thermal expansion describes the increase in a material's volume due to an increase in temperature. As the material's temperature rises, the particles within the material gain kinetic energy, causing them to move more and take up more space, leading to an expansion in volume.
