No, as it freezes it loses energy, giving it off as 'latent heat'. This effect can be used in an outdoor shed when you fear a frost. If you put a load of buckets of water in the shed, then if there is a frost at night, the water will give out heat as it freezes, keeping the ambient temperature at 0 degrees Centigrade until all the water is frozen, which might be long enough to prevent the frost from freezing other things - jars of pickles for instance, which freeze at a slightly lower temperature.

What is the process called when water changes from solid to liquid?
The name for solid water is ice. It changes to a liquid when it melts.
What phase changes require the subtraction of heat energy?
Phase changes requiring the addition of heat energy are the phase changes from solid to liquid, liquid to gas, and solid to gas. These phase changes are termed melting (solid to liquid), evaporation (liquid to gas), and sublimation (solid to gas).
What process by which water vapor changes to a solid?
Condensation, which changes vapor to liquid water, and freezing, which changes liquid water to solid ice.
How can matter change from one state to another state of matter?
They can;liquid to gas= evapouration(boiling water)liquid to solid=freezing(ice cubes)gas to liquid= condensation(steamy bathroom windows)solid to liquid= melting(ice cubes).
What happens to water when it changes state from a liquid to a solid?
the water looses energy to become solid (freezing). This happens due to electrons (which transfer and store the energy) going to a lower state where the atoms get closer together. Therefore ice takes up a smaller volume than when it is in a liquid state.
True or false when ice changes to a liquid it asorbs energy?
true, when ice changes to a liquid it asorbs heat energy .
Does energy flow into or out of water when it is turning into ice?
It must flow out, ice contains less energy than water. You just have to remember that heat is energy, and all energy, no matter what form, eventually winds up as heat. Take heat energy out of water, it gets cooler, and eventually freezes. Add heat energy to ice, it first changes state to liquid, and then starts to get warmer. Keep adding heat energy to it, it keeps getting warmer and warmer. Keep additing heat energy to it, and eventually it changes state to gas ... called "steam". Take heat energy out of the steam, it first changes state to liquid, then gets cooler. etc. etc.
When you take ice cream from your freezer and it melts what happens?
its a physical changes the particles in the ice cream do not move cause its a liquid
As energy is added matter changes from a solid to liquid is called?
melting and from a solid to gas ,as in dry ice, it is sublimating
Name a solid that changes into a liquid not how it changes?
ice, it melts
Is it true that gas absorbs energy as it changes into a liquid?
When a gas changes to a liquid, it goes through the process of Condensation. This is when the gas cools and loses energy. Then the particles are forced to change state, from a gas to a liquid.
What changes from liquid to solid?
water to ice
What is a solid that changes in to liquid?
An ice cube
What changes from ice to liquid water at its?
n
What is the process called when water changes from solid to liquid?
The name for solid water is ice. It changes to a liquid when it melts.
How a solid changes into a liquid?
for example ice is melted down into a liquid
What do you call the change in state of matter from a liquid to a gas?
Condensation
