For example, to melt ice, you need to add heat energy. To freeze liquid water (to turn it back into ice), you have to remove heat energy.
The temperature remain constant during the phase changing.
Thermal energy, melting of ice is a physical change of phase.
It is called the latent heat of vaporisation.
changes from one state to another without a change in chemical composition
It can lose or gain energy or it forms the attractions between particles.
This is freezing. Liquid to solid is a change of phase.
The additional heat, called "enthalpy" completes the phase change, by changing the arrangement of the molecules in the existing environment, not the temperature. The energy must be removed from a gas to cause condensation into liquid, and from a liquid to cause solidification (freezing). Conversely, it is added when changing a solid to a liquid or a liquid to a gas. At a certain temperature (critical temperature), the process happens spontaneously because the phase boundary disappears.
Flash gas is state of phase of a liquid changing into Gas, at fast or faster or fastest rate. This happens mostly in case or organic volatile compounds including Refrigerant. This phase transition is accompanied by release of energy (heat). (any phase transition requires "heat energy" added / released.
Particles of matter have their least kinetic energy in the solid phase and their greatest kinetic energy in the gas phase.
It heats them, sometimes driving a phase change, sometimes just driving convection currents. In the upper atmosphere, energetic UV from the Sun will actually break them apart.
hy
Substances changing between soild and liquid undergo Phase Transition and solids absorb energy at constasnt tempertature to phase change solids to liquid. The reverse happens when the liquid turns to solid, energy is given off.
