Bob adds heat to a substance. When enough heat is added, A. its particles move closer together and the substance becomes a gas.

Answer 1

Answer:

C. its particles move farther apart and the substance becomes a gas.

Explanation:

A. is wrong because moving closer together creates a solid, not a gas.

B. is wrong because moving father apart creates a gas, not solid.

C. is correct because moving farther apart creates a gas.

D. is wrong because when heat is added particles spread apart because they vibrate faster. Although, in a solid the particles are closer together.
