The process of freezing, by which a liquid changes to a solid, technically doesn't require energy. In practice, if you have to make icecubes in your freezer, you do use energy - but the energy content of the ice is still lower than that of the water. Freezing happens by losing energy, not by gaining it. Whereas melting a solid into a liquid does require energy.

∙ 14y agoYou would need to add heat energy to a solid (e.g. Ice) in order to turn it into a liquid (e.g. Water).

∙ 10y agono. a good example of this is hail.
No. It can convert directly into a solid by the processes of sublimation. Hail is an example of water turning into ice. Thus hail is NOT an example.

What does a change form a liquid to a solid involve in thermal energy?
It involves a loss of thermal energy.
What happens to water vapor when energy is taken away?
If enough energy is taken away from water vapour, it will condense to form water (in liquid form). This is because a gaseous state requires more energy than a liquid state (and a liquid state requires more energy than a solid state).
How many forms of energy is there?
energy is shape less so it can change from one form to other.so we state that energy can be in form heat light major states like solid liquid gaseoues forms
What is more dense liquid xenon or solid xenon?
All the noble gases have solid forms that are denser than their liquid forms, so no, the liquid form is not denser than the solid form of Xe.
Is Kinetic energy a solid liquid or gas?
Kinetic energy is the energy of motion. Heat is a form of kinetic energy (the movement of individual atoms or molecules) so the liquid phase contains more kinetic energy than the solid and the gas phase has more kinetic energy than the liquid phase. However, kinetic energy can also be imparted to a mass as a whole in which case if the total mass of the phases was constant the this imparted kinetic energy would be the same for all phases.
How do people change the state of matter?
If the matter is in a liquid state, add heat to turn liquid to vapor. Remove heat to form a solid. If it is in the form of a vapor, remove heat to form a liquid, and remove more heat to form a solid. If it is in the form of a solid, add heat to turn it into a liquid. Add more heat to turn into a vapor.
What does a change form a liquid to a solid involve in thermal energy?
It involves a loss of thermal energy.
What is the amount of energy can change a solid phase to a liquid phase?
Every element has its own energy requirement to change a solid to liquid form. This energy , for water. is 80 calories (333 Joules) to turn a gram of ice to liquid water.
Describe how particles change as they change state from solid to liquid?
Particles do not change when they change state from solid to liquid form. However, they will change behavior because they are completely still when they are solid and move faster when a liquid.
Is energy released when a solid changes to a liquid?
The latent heat of fusion
What changing a solid to a liquid to a gas requires?
Requires energy, generally in the form of heat.
What form of energy is needed to cause substances to change form one solid to a liquid and a liquid to a gas?
thermal energy is needed to do that job. as opposed to mechanical potential or chemical energies.
What is the major source of energy in the water cycle?
The answer is: It vapors into the form of, liquid,solid(ice) and vapor
During which phase change requires water is the most energy released into the environment?
Going from gas phase directly to solid state will conserve maximum energy. Just the opposite of the statement above will be true for maximum energy release. Changing from solid to directly into gas is called sublimation.
Is ice liquid or gas?
Ice is water in its solid form. When it melts, it is water in its liquid form.
How do solid and a liquid form?
A solid and a liquid can form a solution, a suspension, the can chemically react, etc.
What is the temperature at which a solid changes to a liquid called is there a gain or a loss of energy?
this process is the process of gaining thermal energy. As any matter changes state from solid to any other form it will require energy. As energy is exerted on the solid perssure or electric or thermal or other type, the solid will obsorb the energy and change state. The solid thereby will in turn and at a ratio, increase the thermal energy it consumes.
