Thermal energy
causes changes in the state of some materials
causes changes in the way materials perform
causes changes in the way materials change
Thermal energy
can change a solid into a liquid
can change a liquid into a liquid
can change a solid
can change liquid into a gas
When a solid receives thermal energy, it changes into liquid
melting
solidification
evaporation
expansion
When thermal energy is applied to a liquid. it changes into a gas.
melting
evaporation
expansion
solidification
the liquid changes into gas
melting
explotion
solidification
evaporation
Thermal energy causes the molecules in a solid, liquid or gas to vibrate
expansion
Evaporation
Melting
solidification
Gases expand faster than
rocks and minerals
liquids
solids
gases
when gases receive thermal energy
the gases expand
they don´t expand very rapidly and don´t cause explosions.
they expand very rapidly
they cause explosions.
In the evaporation, as the liquid receives thermal energy
molecules mover faster than before
molecules mover slower than before
and they separate from each other
and they do not separate from each other
Thermal energy can cause
pollution
green energies
chemical changes
nuclear changes
Thermal energy causes the molecules
in a solid, liquid or gas to vibrate
in a solid, liquid or gas
melting, expansion and solidification
the material expands
Chemical changes are produced by
nuclear energy
thermal energy
chemical energy
mechanical energy
Chemical changes
cause permanent changes in the materials
do not cause any changes
cause some changes but not permanent
Cooking food for example: cakes, muffins...
chemical changes
evaporation
cooking
thermal changes
