There are many different types of energy forms, from electrical to solar to potential and nuclear. So far as I know, most if not all forms of energy discharge give off varying degrees of heat or absorb heat, in a sense. This variation in temperature from room temp to extreme heats and extreme colds causes a proportional expansion and condensation, respectively (in most cases, not all), of any given element or material. All matter is in a state of constant vibration at the molecular level. When any given matter comes into "contact" with this form of energy, depending on the relation of the matter to the energy and the amount of energy present (or lack thereof), the molecules in the matter will have a tendency to vibrate faster or slower than their current state. Therefore, the consistency and ferocity of the molecular vibration is what cause the expansion and condensation of matter. How's that for making a short answer long?

Why does it take so much energy to change a liquid to a solid?
You actually take away energy to turn a liquid into a solid.
Which state changes require heat and which gives off heat?
Change from solid to liquid to gas require energy. Change from gas to liquid to solid emit energy.
What is a change of state in which energy is added as it changes state?
Solid --> Liquid. Liquid -> Gas. Solid --> Gas.
How much energy is taken to change water into a solid?
The same amount of energy that is required to change it from a solid to a liquid. About 334.0 kJ/kg.
Is energy absorbed durning solid to liquid phase change?
yes
What makes a liquid a solid?
a loss in energy cause the change from liquid to solid like-wise a rise in energy causes a change from solid to liquid.
How does in thermal energy cause matter to change from one state to another?
An increase in thermal energy may change a solid to a liquid, a liquid to a gas, or a solid to a gas.A decrease in thermal energy may cause a change in the opposite direction - for example, from a liquid to a solid.
How does change in thermal energy causes matter to change from one state to another?
An increase in thermal energy may change a solid to a liquid, a liquid to a gas, or a solid to a gas.A decrease in thermal energy may cause a change in the opposite direction - for example, from a liquid to a solid.
Does thermal energy can cause matter to experience a change of phase why?
Yes because when the thermal energy of a substance increases, it's particles move faster. If the thermal energy of a solid increases, it's particles melts into a liquid. The liquid state of a substance always has a higher thermal energy than it's solid state
To change or cause to change from liquid to solid state?
Decreasing the temperature a liquid become a solid.
During which three changes of state is energy absorbed?
cchemical change and energy change also the change of a gas to a liquid
Which of the changes of state shown in the figure require an increase in energy answers?
Evaporation uses energy to change from a liquid to a gas. Melting uses energy to change from a solid to a liquid. Condensation releases energy to change from a gas to a liquid. Freezing releases energy to change from a liquid to a solid.
What energy is needed to change a material from a liquid to a solid?
energy
Why does it take so much energy to change a liquid to a solid?
You actually take away energy to turn a liquid into a solid.
When a solid turns to liquid energy is absorbed?
No, a liquid releases energy to its surroundings when it becomes a solid.
How does water changes to solid liquid and gas?
Changing phase (solid, liquid, gas) requires energy. Adding energy allows the molecules to move apart and solid change to liquid or liquids change to gases.
Do you need to increase or decrease the amount of heat energy to change a solid to a liquid?
Thermal (heat) energy must be added or removed in order to cause a change of state.
