Expansion during heating:

Expansion during heating:
  1. increases the weight of a material
  2. decreases density of material
  3. Occurs only in solid
  4. Occurs at same rate of all liquids and solids

Solution

Expansion during heating is the process to change the volume of matter in response to change in temperature. During thermal expansion, the density of substance decreases as its volume increases. Increase in volume-occupying a large space. The atoms of matter are distributed in larger spaces.
