Question: A solid is cooled to a very low temperature, assuming the mass remains constant,how if at all does this affect the density of the solid?
Answer: Temperature is related to the kinetic energy the atoms within any given substance. Within a solid, we can therefore assume that the density will increase as the solid is cooled to a low temperature, as this will cause a loss in kinetic energy and the atoms won't be able to move as freely.
Hope this helps!.
