What over the counter chemical will melt plastic?
Fire does not melt plastic. Fire creates the thermal energy, heat energy, melts plastic.
What would happen if chocolate is left outside on a hot summer day?
The chocolate would melt because of the, he heat.
What is an atoms melting point?
An atom itself does not melt. The substance made out of atoms melts when it gets to hot in temperature, and the increased energy in the atoms causes the substance to fall apart somewhat.
What causes ice cubes to melt?
Well, water can only be in it's solid form (ice) if the temperature is below the freezing point. The freezing point can vary slightly depending on the atmospheric pressure and minerals in the water, but this point is generally very close to 32 degrees Fahrenheit or 0 degrees Celsius. When an ice cube is removed from a cold environment (like your freezer) and placed in a warmer environment (like your cup of lemonade), heat begins to transfer from the environment to the ice cube. In other words, your drink becomes cooler because as the ice cube melts it absorbs energy from the water. Heat is transferred to the ice cubes until they are at the same temperature as their surroundings. The energy required to melt an ice cube is called the latent heat of fusion. It takes a pretty good amount of energy to freeze or melt water, and this large amount of energy is the reason that ice doesn't just instantly become water once it is no longer below the freezing temperature.The short answer is that heat causes ice cubes to melt.
Why is heat energy needed to melt a solid what is this heat energy called?
This energy is the enthalpy of fusion (or latent heat of fusion).
What in chocolate ingridient causes it to melt?
Fat.
What causes matter to melt?
Heat energy causes matter to melt. The energy breaks bonds in the matter making looser constructions of the material.
Which type of energy causes snow to melt?
Thermal.
What over the counter chemical will melt plastic?
Fire does not melt plastic. Fire creates the thermal energy, heat energy, melts plastic.
How long does it take to melt chocolate?
It really depends on the amount of chocolate you are trying to melt.
What is writing chocolate?
writing chocolate is melting chocolate to a liquid form, then emptying the ink in your pen, refilling it with melted chocolate. I think. Or you can melt a chocolate bar till it is soft and write with it.
Which form of energy causes an ice cube to melt?
whatever's around it, assuming it's in surroundings warmer than 0 Celsius. Everything has heat energy, unless it's at 0 degree kelvin (-273 Celsius), so the warmer surroundings transfer some of this warmth to the colder ice
Why does ice cream melts quickly on a hot day?
Because heat is a form of energy, it causes particles to move faster. When particles move faster, they bump against each other and create more heat. Energy is what causes a solid to melt into a liquid (And sometimes sublime into a gas) and causes that liquid to turn into a gas.
Why does the Reese's chocolate melt first?
The chocolate is easier to melt than the peanut butter filling and because the chocolate is on the outside.
Which part of the house makes the chocolate melt the fastest?
The microwave or the stovetop will melt chocolate the fastest.
How do you measure chocolate in millimeters?
To measure chocolate in millimeters one must melt the chocolate to liquid form and then pour the resulting liquid into a measuring device that measures in millimeters such as a graduated cylinder.
What chocolate will melt quicker dark or white chocolate?
dark chocolate
