Thermal properties and temperature — practice question

The diagram shows the particle arrangements in samples of three different substances, P, Q and R. The samples all have equal volumes and are at the same temperature. The samples are heated. Each sample experiences the same temperature rise and no change of state occurs. Which row gives possible percentage increases in volume for the three samples?

  • Asample of substance P: 0.066%; sample of substance Q: 1.9%; sample of substance R: 7.2%
  • Bsample of substance P: 0.066%; sample of substance Q: 7.2%; sample of substance R: 1.9%
  • Csample of substance P: 1.9%; sample of substance Q: 0.066%; sample of substance R: 7.2%
  • Dsample of substance P: 1.9%; sample of substance Q: 7.2%; sample of substance R: 0.066%
