When heat is transferred by molecular collision, it is referred to as heat transfer by

A. Conduction

B. Convection

C. Radiation

D. Scattering

Answer: Option B

Solution(By Examveda Team)

Convection is the process of heat transfer by the bulk movement of molecules within fluids such as gases and liquids. The initial heat transfer between the object and the fluid takes place through conduction, but the bulk heat transfer happens due to the motion of the fluid

    Correct ans is convection because in convection heat transfer through conduction as well as bulk movement of molecules.

    Convection- heat transfer by motion of particles
    Conduction- heat transfer by molecular collision
    Actually convection involves conduction and advection both so convection can also be correct but the most appropriate option will be conduction.

    Convection is correct answer. Because in convection, heat transfer by collision of molecular & in condition, heat transfer by lettice vibration.

    in conducion molecular collision happens, in convection molecules carry the heat from one place to other so answer is A
