yes. It takes energy to raise the temperature of the solid to the melting point.
Generally, melting is the process of turning from a solid to a liquid. It entails gaining energy.
Heat
Butter creame
Thermal
Yes, because butter is melting
physical
This is an endothermic process (need energy for melting), a physical change..
Particles absorb energy when boiling (vapourising), melting and subliming. Particles release energy when freezing and condensing.
con: melting it will use energy and release chemicals into the atmosphere
Melting and boiling (vaporization) absorb energy, freezing and condensing release energy.
Particle motion and thermal heat energy should both be increasing
yes. It takes energy to raise the temperature of the solid to the melting point.

Energy is required in the melting process because high is needed to melt something
It is a physical property. A chemical property would involve the butter reacting to the toast, but the butter is actually reacting to the heat from the toast. The butter would melt against any surface hot enough, where as butter would not melt on cold toast. Hence, the reaction to heat makes it a physical property. (A relatively easy way to remember is that physical properties deal with the transfer of physical energy or force such as heat, inertia, etc. Chemical properties occur when two material substances trade molecules or electrons.)
Melting requires energy: the heat energy in your drink is used to melt the ice.
