10 Questions
What happens when a substance is heated?
The atoms/molecules gain energy and move faster
What is the relationship between temperature and the speed of atoms/molecules?
Temperature is a measurement of the average speed of atoms/molecules
What happens to the volume of a substance when it is cooled?
The volume decreases
What is the relationship between energy transfer and temperature change?
Energy transfer causes a change in the speed of atoms/molecules, which is detected as a change in temperature
What happens to the collisions between atoms/molecules when a substance is warmed?
The collisions become stronger and more frequent
What is the primary cause of temperature change in a substance?
The transfer of energy to or from the atoms/molecules
If the atoms/molecules in a substance are moving faster, what can be inferred about the temperature?
The temperature is higher
What happens to the volume of a substance when it is heated?
The volume increases due to the atoms/molecules expanding
Which statement is true about the atoms/molecules themselves during the heating or cooling process?
The atoms/molecules remain the same size, but their speed changes
What happens to the collisions between atoms/molecules when a substance is cooled?
The collisions become weaker and less frequent
Learn about the concepts of heating and cooling substances, energy transfer, and temperature measurement. Understand how energy transfer affects the speed of atoms and molecules, resulting in changes in temperature.
