Question

which statements best describe convection? check all that apply.
convection occurs in solids.
convection occurs in liquids and gases.
convection transfers thermal energy.
convection transfers potential energy.
convection occurs until all of the fluid is at the same temperature.
convection occurs only one time, no matter the temperature.

Explanation:

Convection is a mode of heat transfer. It occurs in fluids (liquids and gases) as the movement of fluid particles transfers thermal energy. Convection continues until the fluid reaches thermal equilibrium (all of the fluid is at the same temperature).

Answer:

Convection occurs in liquids and gases.
Convection transfers thermal energy.
Convection occurs until all of the fluid is at the same temperature.
