Q

what happens to the mass of solids when they expand?

A

during heating, particles in solid only move further apart from one another, thus occupying a greater volume. since the numver of paticle sin the solid remains the same, the mass of the solid remains the same

Q

what happens to the density of a solid when it expands?

A

decreases. because volume increases but mass stays the same.

17
Q

evaporation vs boiling

A

evaporation occus at the surface of the liquid, occurs at any temperature, no bubbles seen

boiling occurs throughout the liquid, occurs at boiling point, bubbles seen

18
Q

do particles and masses of particles change during change of state?

A

no

19
