Answer:
Liquids expand for the same reason, but because the bonds between separate molecules are usually less tight they expand more than solids. ... Heat causes the molecules to move faster, (heat energy is converted to kinetic energy ) which means that the volume of a gas increases more than the volume of a solid or liquid.

Answer:
Liquids are expanding more than the solids on heating because molecules are easily moved than solids.
Thermal expansion of solids:
- In solids, atoms vibrate quicker about their positions which are fixed while on heating. Therefore, the comparative rise in solid size when heated is low.
- Metal tracks on the railway have tiny gaps so that the tracks grow into these gaps when the sun heats them and do not buckle.
- Liquids expands are expands more than solids because the “bonds between” distinct molecules are less tight. This is the ‘principle’ behind thermometers for liquid-in-glass.
