5 Questions
What happens when energy is transferred to a substance?
The substance gains energy and the atoms/molecules move faster
What happens to the volume of a substance when it is heated?
The volume increases as the atoms/molecules spread further apart
What happens when a substance is cooled?
The atoms/molecules lose energy and move slower
What is the relationship between the speed of atoms/molecules and temperature?
The faster the atoms/molecules move, the higher the temperature
What happens to the atoms/molecules themselves when a substance is heated or cooled?
The atoms/molecules remain the same size
Learn about the transfer of energy when heating or cooling a substance, and how it affects the speed of atoms and molecules which results in a change in temperature. Explore the relationship between energy transfer and temperature measurement.
