What happens to the speed of atoms/molecules when energy is transferred to a substance?
Speed increases
What happens to the volume of a substance when it is cooled?
Volume decreases
What occurs to the collisions between atoms/molecules when a substance is warmed?
Collisions become stronger and more frequent
How does the temperature of a substance relate to the average speed of its atoms/molecules?
Higher temperature means faster speed
Heating a substance results in energy being transferred to the substance.
True
Cooling a substance means that energy is gained by the substance.
False
Particles move faster at lower temperatures.
False
When a substance is warmed, its volume decreases.
False
When a substance is cooled, the atoms/molecules get closer together.
True
