Questions and Answers

What happens when a substance is heated?

  • The atoms/molecules move randomly in all directions, regardless of temperature.
  • The atoms/molecules gain energy and move faster, resulting in stronger and more frequent collisions. (correct)
  • The atoms/molecules do not change speed, but the volume of the substance increases.
  • The atoms/molecules lose energy and move slower, resulting in weaker and less frequent collisions.

What is the relationship between temperature and the speed of atoms/molecules?

  • Slower moving atoms/molecules always result in a lower temperature.
  • Faster moving atoms/molecules always result in a higher temperature.
  • Temperature is a measurement of the average speed of atoms/molecules. (correct)
  • There is no relationship between temperature and the speed of atoms/molecules.

What happens when a substance is cooled?

  • The atoms/molecules lose energy and move slower, resulting in weaker and less frequent collisions. (correct)
  • The atoms/molecules gain energy and move faster, resulting in stronger and more frequent collisions.
  • The atoms/molecules move randomly in all directions, regardless of temperature.
  • The atoms/molecules do not change speed, but the volume of the substance decreases.
