Q

How does heat affect a liquids volume?

A

When a liquid is heated, it moves quickly and increases its distance because the bond between its molecules are less than a solid. As a result, liquid has more thermal expansion compared to a solid.
When it reaches its boiling point, its attraction becomes weaker, and it turns into a gas which increases its volume even further.

Q

How does heat affect a gases volume ?

A

Since they have a weak attraction, when gas is heated, their particles move farther apart. The expansion of volume of gas is more compared to a liquid in a solid. However, if they were are placed in a container with a fixed volume, it will not expand.

Q

When a gas is volume, receives heat and it is in a container what happens?

A

It builds pressure that container, and eventually the container goes kaboom.

Q

Are particles of matter, always consistently moving?

A

Particles of matter, always consistently moving. Even particles of a solid consistently vibrate, although as low in restricted manner due to their limited spacing.

Q

Do particles of matter have space between them?

A

Atoms and molecules have spaces between them. Particles of solid or tightly packed together, that they can hardly move. Meanwhile, particles of a liquid have some space between them, whereas gas particles are far apart from each other.

Q

Do particles of matter attract each other?

A

Particles of matter are attracted to each other by varying degree of force called intermolecular forces of attraction.

Q

Do particles of matter move faster when they’re heated?

A

If you apply heat, particles of matter, vibrate, faster, and behave differently. As the molecules heat up, they gain kinetic energy. Particles move faster and bump into each other, creating more space between them.

Q

What are three facts about liquids?

A

They do not have a fixed shape
They are not rigid
But they have a fixed volume

19
Q

What are three facts about gases?

A

They are not rigid
They have no fixed shapes
They have no fixed volume

20
Q

Can heat affect volume of objects?

A

Yes, heat affects the volume of different objects and in different ways. Thermal expansion is the increase and volume of objects when heated. Each object has a specific amount of thermal expansion, depending on whether it is a solid gas or liquid.

21
Q

What happens to a solid when it’s molecules are heated?

A

When Asal is heated, it’s particle. Start to move quickly and become less organized. The spaces between these particles increase so it’s volume also increases solids become larger, and wider when they are heated.

22
Q

Which state of matter has the least thermal expansion?

A

Solids have the least thermal expansion among the states of matter because of their strong intermolecular attractions

23
Q

What happens when a solid reaches their melting point?

A

When solid reach their melting point or the temperature where solitary into a liquid, their particles move even faster and their volumes expand.

24
Q

Particles of matter are consistently moving above temperatures of?

A

-273.15°C or 0 K which is also called absolute zero.

25
Q

What happens to a solid when heat is removed?

A

It starts to move, slow gain, more attractive forces, such that less vibrations occur in the volume decreases

26
Q

What happens when a liquid is heated?

A

When he is added, they move particles move, faster, lose their attractive forces such that at its boiling point it becomes a gas and volume increases

27
Q

What happens when heat is removed from a liquid?

A

It moves, even slower, gains more attractive forces, such that it freezes into a solid and volume decreases

28
Q

What happens when heat is added to a gas?

A

If in a container, it will continue to build up pressure and increase it temperature and volume increases

29
Q

What happens when he is removed from a gas?

A

The gas will most of our gain attractive forces such that it condenses turns into a liquid and its volume decreases

30
Q

What are some ways heat can be produced?

A

He can be produced in many ways, including sunlight, friction, electricity, burning, fossil, fuels, and physical activities.

31
Q

What is the primary source of heat?

A

Sunlight

32
Q

How does the sun produce heat?

A

The sun produces heat through a process called nuclear fusion

33
Q

What is nuclear fusion

A

Hydrogen elements, collide, and transparent transform into helium. This nuclear fusion releases heat that reaches the planet through the through solar radiation. Electromagnetic waves carry the sun energy. It is similar to the heat that you feel when you were next to a fireplace. The heat radiates or send out from the fireplace to your skin.

34
Q

What does friction?

A

When two objects rub together, their movement transform and heat energy due to friction. Friction is a force that opposes motion between the object that are touching each other.

35
Q

How does friction produce heat?

A

Friction makes the molecules of objects, move, faster, thus produce heat

36
Q

How does electricity produce heat?

A

Electricity produces heat when particles like electrons and atoms, collide, and creative resistance, which results in the output of heat and electrical energy.

37
Q

How does the burning a fossil fuels create heat?

A

The components of the fossil fuels undergo chemical changes and release heat during the burning process. The carbon and hydrogen components of fossil fuels react with the oxygen in the air to form carbon dioxide and water. During this process reaction, the heat is released which further hastens the burning process.

38
Q

How does physical activity create heat?

A

Your body needs to burn fuels like carbohydrates and fats through series of chemical reactions, which then causes heat or sweat

39
Q

 what is the greenhouse effect?

A

The greenhouse factor first the warming of the atmosphere due to greenhouse gases

40
Q

What are some examples of greenhouse gases?

A

Some examples are methane, carbon dioxide, ozone, and nitrous oxide. They trap heat, and warm the earths temperature.

41
Q

What percentage does carbon dioxide count for global warming?

A

76% of global greenhouse admissions
