JlLh Lhe same volume a hoLLer maLLer has hlgher heaL conLenL
Lxpans|on and contract|on of matter
MaLLer absorbs heaL when heaLed and epels heaL when cooled
2 Jhen heaLed
a) 9arLlcles of maLLer absorb heaL energy and change lL lnLo klneLlc energy klneLlc
energy causes parLlcles Lo vlbraLe fasLer
b) 1hls vlbraLlon causes Lhe parLlcles Lo move furLher aparL 1herefore Lhe slze and
volume of maLLer wlll lncrease
3 Jhen cooled
a) 9arLlcles of maLLer vlbraLe less and Lhelr speed also decreases
b) lsLance beLween Lhe parLlcles reduces 1hls means LhaL Lhe slze and volume of
maLLer also decreases
