A Matter contracts when heated so becomes less dense.

B Matter contracts when heated so becomes more dense.

C Matter expands when heated so becomes less dense.

D Matter expands when heated so becomes more dense.

A Particles move faster when heated, and so occupy a larger space.

B Particles move slower when heated, and so occupy a larger space.

C Particles move faster when heated, and so occupy a smaller space.

D Particles move slower when heated, and so occupy a smaller space.

A When heated, the forces involved in collisions increases as the particles are moving faster.

B When heated, the forces involved in collisions increases as the particles are moving slower.

C When heated, the forces involved in collisions decreases as the particles are moving slower.

D When heated, the forces involved in collisions decreases as the particles are moving faster.

A The process of a solid turning into a gas is called evaporation.
