Solution Steps

Step 1: Identify the General Behavior of Matter When Heated
  • Understand that most substances, when heated, tend to increase in kinetic energy.
  • This increase in kinetic energy typically causes the particles to move apart.
Step 2: Determine the Common Effect of Heating on Matter
  • Recognize that as particles move apart, the substance usually increases in volume.
  • This increase in volume is generally referred to as expansion.
Step 3: Apply the General Rule to the Given Options
  • Analyze the options provided: solidifies, contracts, expands, condenses.
  • Identify that "expands" is the term that describes the general behavior of matter when heated, except for water in certain conditions.
