Can energy be released when matter can it be absorbed can a change in matter in matter take place in which energy is neither released nor absorbed?

Energy can be released when matter changes. For example when something burns, such as natural gas (methane) combining with oxygen from the air, such as happens in a gas stove, to form carbon dioxide and water and release lots of energy. If you use a gas stove, this is how you cook. Energy can be absorbed when matter changes. For example, when ice in your glass absorbs heat from the room and melts, a phase change from ice to water, energy is absorbed. Matter can change without either net absorption or net release of energy, but some energy may be borrowed to enable the change and then returned after the change.


What happens to thermal energy when matter changes from one state to another?

When matter changes state, thermal energy is either absorbed or released. For example, when a solid melts to become a liquid, thermal energy is added to break the bonds holding the solid structure together. On the other hand, when a gas condenses to become a liquid, thermal energy is released as the gas molecules slow down and come closer together.


How does changes occur in the different changes of matter?

Changes in the states of matter occur through processes like melting, freezing, condensation, vaporization, and sublimation. These changes involve the rearrangement of particles at the molecular level due to changes in temperature or pressure. During these transitions, energy is either absorbed or released.


What happens when a substance changes from one state of matter to another?

When a substance changes from one state of matter to another (e.g. solid to liquid, liquid to gas), the arrangement and movement of its particles are altered. Energy is either absorbed or released during the change, causing the substance's temperature to either increase or decrease. This process is known as a phase transition.


Can a change in matter take place in which neither is released nor absorbed?

Yes.


What do you call the change in state of matter from a liquid to a gas?

Condensation


When matter changes from one state to another is called what?

Physical changes.


Can a change in matter take place without energy being released or absorbed?

No, a change in matter can't take place without energy being released or absorbed? Why? Well, this is because every chemical or physical change in matter includes a change in energy. You can't change matter without a change in energy. Energy is the ability to do work or cause change. Hope you find this helpful. And yes, this answer has been approved by my science teacher.
