The structure expands.

The increased movement causes an increase in the intermolecular distance.

ON COOLINGIts particles lose energy and vibrate less.

The structure contracts.

The decreased movement causes a decrease in the intermolecular distance.

UNEVEN EXPANSION OF MATTERWhen two types of solids of different expansion rates are joined together the overall structure will expand

unevenly if heated.

Uneven expansion causes the structure to bend.

Even ExpansionUneven

Expansion

UNEVEN EXPANSION OF MATTERThe direction of bending depends on the expansion rate of the solids and its position on the structure.

The structure will bend downwards if the top layer

expand faster.

The structure will bend upwards if the bottom

layer expand faster.
