What happens to water particles when they are heated? Select the box if the sentence is true. Leave the box blank if it is NOT. * 5 points
The speed of the water particles increases.
The size of the water particles increases.
The number of water particles increases.
The space between the water particles increases.
The number of collisions between water particles increases.

The speed of the water particles increases.

The number of collisions between water particles increases.

Explanation:

When water particles are heated, the speed of the particles increases and the number of collisions between the water particles also increases.

answer: option (4) is the correct answer.

explanation:

areas which are at low altitudes and near the equator tend to receive direct sunlight from the sun. hence, heat energy or radiations from the sun make these areas warmer and they have warmest water.

whereas areas which are at high altitudes and away from the equator do no receive direct sunlight. hence, no direct contact from the sun makes these regions colder and thus, they have colder water.

thus, we can conclude that the statement areas at low latitudes near the equator have the warmest water because they receive the most direct sunlight best explains the relationship between an area's geography and the temperature of its surface water.
