Questions and Answers

What happens when energy is transferred to a substance?

  • The substance gains energy, but the speed of its atoms/molecules decreases.
  • The substance loses energy, and the speed of its atoms/molecules decreases.
  • The substance gains energy, and the speed of its atoms/molecules increases. (correct)
  • The substance remains unchanged, and the speed of its atoms/molecules stays the same.

    • What happens to the volume of a substance when it is cooled?

  • The volume decreases as the atoms/molecules move slower and get closer together. (correct)
  • The volume increases as the atoms/molecules expand in size.
  • The volume remains the same as the speed of the atoms/molecules does not change.
  • The volume increases as the atoms/molecules move faster.
