1 Do Now! Can you continue with the questions you were doing last lesson (Expansion)?

2 Today’s lesson Describe qualitatively the thermal expansion of solids, liquids and gases Identify and explain some of the everyday applications and consequences of thermal expansion Describe qualitatively the effect of a change of temperature on the volume of a gas at constant pressure

3 Gather round!

4 Expansion Many substances expand when heated When heated, the particles (atoms or molecules) in a substance vibrate more This means they need more space So the substance expands Heat

5 Important note! The particles in a substance do not expand themselves! Heat Particles are the same size

6 Contraction The opposite happens when most substances are cooled The particles vibrate less They need less room The substance contracts Cools

7 Solids The expansion of solids is small but strong! Like me!

8 Expansion in solids This means that we sometimes have to take into account expansion

9 Expansion in solids This means that we sometimes have to take into account expansion

10 Contraction can also be a problem

11 Liquids Most liquids expand when heated

12 Gases Gases expand a lot when heated! http://www.youtube.com/watc h?v=A843PL6Yejs&feature=re latedhttp://www.youtube.com/watc h?v=A843PL6Yejs&feature=re lated http://www.youtube.com/watc h?v=ZgTTUuJZAFs&feature= related

13 Let’s try an expanding worksheet!

14 Temperature and volume of a gas at constant pressure http://phet.colorado.edu/en/simulation/gas- properties

15 Temperature and volume of a gas at constant pressure When a gas is heated (at constant pressure), the gas expands. Can you copy this please?

16 HOMEWORK Due Thursday 22nd March Finish Expansion, Evaporation and Gas pressure sheets
