Open in App
Solution

  1. The density of a substance decreases with an increase in temperature.
  2. When temperature increases the molecules get energy.
  3. The molecules started to move from one portion to another.
  4. As a result the volume of the substance increases.
  5. The density of an object is defined as the amount of substance in a unit area.
  6. Then Density=mass/Volume
  7. When volume increases density decreases.
  8. Hence, the density of a substance decreases with an increase in temperature.
