energy mate
Energy is used when water changes from a solid to a liquid.
To become a solid, a liquid will absorb heat energy.
a loss in energy cause the change from liquid to solid like-wise a rise in energy causes a change from solid to liquid.
The transition of a material from liquid to solid invariably involves removing energy from the material. Another way to look at this is that the liquid releases energy as it transitions to being a solid.
Melting. States of mater: Solid > Liquid > Gas > Plasma Low energy -----> High energy
The things that happens to the energy level of solid as it become liquid water is that the liquid has more energy than solid do. Simple as that! BY: ANONYMOUS :)
When a solid turns to liquid, it absorbs energy in the form of heat. This heat causes the solid's particles to gain enough energy to break free from their fixed positions and move more freely, transitioning them into a liquid state.
It looses energy to the surroundings. When bindings brakes, energy is released.
energy is gained!
The energy transfer when changing from solid to liquid (melting) is called latent heat of fusion. This energy is used to break the bonds holding the solid together and turn it into a liquid. The energy is stored as potential energy in the liquid until the reverse process (solidification) occurs.
The latent heat of fusion
The answer depends on the specifics of the question. The idea though, is that when they are in equilibrium, both the solid and the liquid should have the same amount of energy PER MOLECULE. The fact that there is a solid component and a liquid component means that either the solid is melting or the liquid is freezing. In most situations, that means that the temperature of the whole mixture is constant. Another idea is that the energy in the molecules can either be kinetic or potential energy. Basically, the more kinetic energy PER MOLECULE an object has, the higher the object's temperature. Furthermore, the more potential energy PER MOLECULE that the object has, the further apart the molecules are from each other. Combining these ideas, here are a few possible answers to your question. 1. There is more solid than liquid. On average, the solid's molecules have the same kinetic energy as the liquid. The solid, having more molecules, has more kinetic energy total. The liquid has more potential energy in total. The solid has more overall energy. 2. There is more liquid than solid. On average, the liquid's molecules have the same kinetic energy as the solid. The liquid, having more molecules, has more kinetic energy total. The liquid also has more potential energy in total. The liquid has more overall energy. 3. There are equal amounts of liquid and solid. On average, the liquid's molecules have the same kinetic energy as the solid. The liquid has equal kinetic energy as the solid due to the even split. The liquid also has more potential energy in total. The liquid has more overall energy. These three are the main possibilities, and as can be seen in the details, the answer depends on the relative amounts of liquid and solid.
