Question

Choose whether the statement below is true or false, the motion of the particles in a substance and the temperature of that substance are directly related is that true or false them as the energy and temperature of a substance increase the movement of the particles decreases true or false the state of matter of a substance can be changed by decreasing or increasing the temperature true or false. The particles and a substance are closest together when there is less energy true or false.

Answer 1

Let's evaluate each statement one by one:

1. "The motion of the particles in a substance and the temperature of that substance are directly related."

   • True: Generally, as the temperature of a substance increases, the motion of its particles also increases.

2. "As the energy and temperature of a substance increase, the movement of the particles decreases."

   • False: As the energy and temperature of a substance increase, the movement of the particles actually increases.

3. "The state of matter of a substance can be changed by decreasing or increasing the temperature."

   • True: Changes in temperature can transition a substance between solid, liquid, and gas phases.

4. "The particles in a substance are closest together when there is less energy."

   • True: At lower energy (and lower temperature), particles in a substance tend to be closer together, as seen in solids.

So the answers are:

1. True
2. False
3. True
4. True
