Is it possible to apply thermal energy to an object and the temperature not increase?

Oh yes, that is possible. Thermal energy can cause a change of phase, during which the temperature does not increase. So when water boils, it remains at 100o Celsius until it is all boiled away.

Why does a substance's temperature increase when it receives more thermal energy?
Temperature is a measure of the concentration of thermal energy.
What is the form of energy that is produced by the movement of molecules in a substance?
It's called thermal energy, and it manifests itself as an increase of temperature.
Are Heat energy and thermal energy opposite?
Thermal energy is the energy contained in a system at a specific temperature a combination of kinetic and potential of the particles. Heat Energy is similar as Thermal energy but when you add heat energy the Temperature of the system may decrease on increase.
How the energy of matter changes when it melts.?
When a solid melts, it is due to an increase in thermal energy to the temperature at which it melts.
Can you add thermal energy to an object without increasing its temperature?
yes-increase its mass
Why does a substance's temperature increase when it receives more thermal energy?
Temperature is a measure of the concentration of thermal energy.
How are thermal energy and temperature alike?
If you increase temperature you increase thermal energy.If you double the amount you have the temperature does not change but the thermal energy does.Temperature and thermal energy are the same since they both use kinetic energy. Temperature uses the thermal energy when the heat measures the average of the kinetic energy. The thermal energy uses the kinetic energy, when it's averged together with the kinetic enery and the others to make the thermal energy.==========================Answer #2:Wow !Temperature is to thermal energy as depth is to water.
Can thermal energy be added without an increase in temperature?
No, thermal energy is entirely energy added for heat.
What indicate increase in thermal energy of the body?
Higher temperature.
What is the form of energy that is produced by the movement of molecules in a substance?
It's called thermal energy, and it manifests itself as an increase of temperature.

Is it possible to add thermal energy to a substance and not to raise its temperature?
Thermal energy is simply just another term for temperature. Adding thermal energy to any substance will always create a rise in temperature. The only way it would be possible to add thermal energy to a substance without seeing any net increase in temperature would be if the substance lost an equal amount of thermal energy at the same time.Answer:At the melting point and boiling point any input of thermal energy goes to the change of state rather than the rise in temperature. As a consequence boilling water stays at 100oC until it is all evaporated and melting ice stays at 0oC until the entire mass is melted
Which energy increases as temperature increases?
The thermal energy.The thermal energy.The thermal energy.The thermal energy.
How the energy of matter changes when it melts.?
When a solid melts, it is due to an increase in thermal energy to the temperature at which it melts.
Can you add thermal energy to an object without increasing its temperature?
yes-increase its mass
Thermal energy added to a substance that is not changing state causes the substances temperature to do what?
To increase.
What is the role of thermal energy in osmosis?
The speed of an osmotic transfer can increase as temperature increases. An increase in thermal energy will increase the movement of molecules both in the liquids, and of the semipermeable membrane, resulting in an increased flow. An increase in thermal energy may also lower the viscosity of a liquid, increasing it's rate of flow.
