Questions and Answers

What happens when a substance is heated?

  • The atoms/molecules themselves expand in size
  • The temperature decreases as the atoms/molecules slow down
  • The atoms/molecules gain energy and move faster (correct)
  • The atoms/molecules lose energy and move slower

When a gas is cooled, what happens to its volume?

  • The volume decreases as the atoms/molecules get closer together (correct)
  • The volume increases as the atoms/molecules gain energy and move faster
  • The volume increases as the atoms/molecules spread further apart
  • The volume remains constant as cooling does not affect the gas

How do gaseous atoms/molecules travel?

  • They remain stationary and do not travel at all
  • They travel in circular patterns until they collide with each other
  • They travel in straight lines until they collide with each other or an object (correct)
  • They travel in random directions, never colliding with each other
