11 Questions
What happens to the volume of a substance when it is warmed?
The atoms/molecules spread further apart and the volume increases
Which statement is true about the relationship between temperature and atom/molecule speed?
Higher temperature means faster atom/molecule speed
What happens to the collisions between atoms/molecules when a substance is cooled?
Collisions are weaker and less frequent
How does cooling a substance affect the volume of the substance?
The atoms/molecules get closer together and the volume decreases
What results in a higher temperature of a substance?
Faster movement of atoms/molecules
What is the primary mechanism by which temperature changes occur in a substance?
Changes in the speed of the atoms/molecules
When a substance is cooled, what happens to the collisions between its atoms/molecules?
The collisions become weaker and less frequent
How does the volume of a substance change when it is warmed?
The volume increases as the atoms/molecules spread further apart
What is the relationship between the speed of atoms/molecules and the temperature of a substance?
Faster atom/molecule speed results in higher temperature
How does the volume of a substance change when it is cooled?
The volume decreases as the atoms/molecules get closer together
What is the primary effect of increasing the energy of the atoms/molecules in a substance?
The atoms/molecules undergo stronger and more frequent collisions
Test your understanding of how heating and cooling affect the speed of atoms/molecules and result in changes in temperature. Learn about the connection between energy transfer, particle speed, and temperature measurements.
