Question 17 • Fall 24 GSE Physical Science B IC

In which of these can convection not occur?

Answer
A
gases
B
solids
C
liquids
D
fluids

Explanation

Convection transfers heat through the bulk movement of matter, so it occurs in fluids—liquids and gases. The particles in a solid cannot flow freely from place to place, so convection cannot occur in solids. Therefore, the correct choice is solids.
