400
the change from when any of the 3 states (solid,liquid,gas)to any other state.
What is changes of state?
400
the volume of an object or substance increases when the temperature increases.
What is thermal expansion?
400
patterns of movement where warm gas or liquid rises and cooler gas or liquid falls to replace it.
