Question

When you heat a sample of a solid, the particles in it become:

  1. Bigger
  2. Low mass
  3. faster
  4. Slow

hintHint:

When a solid is heated particles gain energy.

The correct answer is: faster


    • When a solid is heated the particles gain energy and start to vibrate faster and faster.
    • Initially, its size becomes bigger and the forces of attraction are weakened further weakening the structure.
    • As the structure is weakened it affects the expansion of the solid.
    • After a certain point, it reaches a stage when they overcome the forces of attraction and move away from each other.
    • Finally, this results in the melting of the solid.
