Heat raises the temperature of the material. If the change is small then there is only a physical change and allowing the material to return to its original temperature will return it to its original physical state.
However, too much heat can result in chemical changes which are usually not reversible. For example, if you heat a piece of plastic enough it will crumple into a charred mass. That charred mass will not return to the pristine plastic.

What happens to the specific heat of a material if mass is doubled?
There is no change; specific heat is an intensive property of a material, independent of the amount.
Amount of energy it takes to change a material from a solid to a liquid is the heat of?
Heat of fusion.
Materials with a high specific heat can absorb a lot of energy and show little change in temperature?
Yes. Specific heat capacity is the amount of heat energy required to change the temperature of the material, so a material with high specific heat needs a lot of heat energy for its temperature to go up.
What is the specific heat of a material if 45 g of the material experiences a temperature change of 14 degrees C when 520 cals of heat are absorbed by the material?
.8253968 g/cal x *C
Energy needed to change a material from solid to liquid?
It is the latent heat of liquefaction.
What do you do to change a solid into a liquid?
You heat it until you reach the material's smelting point.
What type of heat energy is needed to change a material from a liquid to a gas?
endothermic
What energy is needed to change a material from solid to liquid?
Heat energy, usually. However, some substances will change states under the influence of UV or other radiation.AnswerThe energy needed to change a material from a solid to a liquid is called the 'latent heat of fusion', or just the 'heat of fusion'. It is equal to the amount of energy or heat given off by the same material to change it from a liquid back into a solid.Each material has its own heat of fusion. Take solid water (ice) at 0o Celsius, the freezing point. Water's heat of fusion is 79.71 calories per gram. That means that you will need to add 79.71 calories of heat to each gram of ice (solid water) to turn it into liquid water. Interestingly, once that's done, the water will still be at 0o Celsius! The heat was used just to change the water's state from solid to liquid. Once the ice is liquid, then any more heat added will increase the temperature of the liquid, and each calorie of heat will increase the water's temperature about 1o Celsius.This is a similar concept to a material's 'heat of vaporization', which is the amount of energy required to change a liquid to a gas.The amount of heat necessary to change a substance from a solid to a liquid or vice versa is commonly called the heat of fusion. It is more properly known as the standard enthalpy of fusion, or also the latent heat of fusion, or the enthalpy change of fusion. The specific temperature at which the change occurs is defined as the melting point of that substance. A link can be found below.The amount of energy a substance must absorb in order to change from a solid to a liquid is the heat of fusion. A change in which a system absorbs energy from its surroundings is endothermic change.
Energy needed to change a material from solid to liquid 3 WORDS?
Heat of Fusion
The specific heat of the material is?
specific heat content is calculated by the joules of energy required to change the temperature of one cubic centimeter of the material 1 degree Celsius.
How do chemicals change material?
Chemicals chAnge their state or form when energy is added ie heaT OR COLD CHANGE TO SOLID LIQUID OR GAS
Why cant you get candle material back after burning?
Candle while burning, its wax gets burnt and matter gets changed into heat and light energy. These get radiated and pass away. So we cannot get back the candle material. Energy can neither be created nor be distroyed. This cannot be violated in any case. But matter can be changed into energy. So to get back the matter we have to know the technique to collect heat and light energy and know the skill to change it back to matter.
