11 Questions
What happens when energy is transferred to a substance?
The atoms/molecules gain energy and move faster
Which of the following is true about temperature?
Temperature is a measurement of the average speed of atoms/molecules
What happens when a substance is cooled?
The atoms/molecules lose energy and move slower
How do the collisions between atoms/molecules change when a substance is warmed?
The collisions become stronger and more frequent
What happens to the volume of a substance when it is cooled?
The volume decreases
Which of the following statements accurately describes the relationship between temperature and the motion of atoms/molecules?
Higher temperatures correspond to faster-moving atoms/molecules, while lower temperatures correspond to slower-moving atoms/molecules.
When a substance is heated, what happens to the volume of the substance and the strength of collisions between its atoms/molecules?
The volume increases, and the collisions become stronger and more frequent.
What happens to the distance between atoms/molecules when a substance is cooled?
The atoms/molecules move closer together, decreasing the distance between them.
Which of the following statements about the volume of a substance is not supported by the information provided?
The volume of a substance changes because the atoms/molecules themselves expand or contract when heated or cooled.
According to the information provided, which of the following statements about energy transfer and temperature is correct?
Heating a substance transfers energy to the substance, causing its temperature to increase.
Based on the information provided, which of the following statements accurately describes the relationship between the motion of atoms/molecules and the strength of their collisions?
Faster-moving atoms/molecules result in stronger and more frequent collisions.
