A bottle of water is taken out of a refrigerator and put on a kitchen table. As the bottle of water warms up, what happens to the particles in the water
1 answer
As the bottle of water warms up, the particles in the water gain kinetic energy and begin to move faster. This increased movement causes the particles to spread out further from each other, leading to an increase in the volume of the water. Moreover, as the temperature of the water increases, the average speed of the particles will increase, leading to an increase in the rate and energy of collisions between particles. Overall, the change in temperature leads to changes in the behaviors of the individual particles in the water.
