Yes!
no it expands with heat, it shrinks when cooled
Glass is a solid. It is melted silicon that has cooled quickly. A mineral that cools slowly can become a crystal.
It is an amorphous solid. The sugar in peanut brittle is melted and then is cooled too fast for the crystalline structure to properly reform, making it irregular.
The temperature decrease and also the volume.
Solid if it's cold, liquid if it's heated.
It depends on the recipe. Shortening becomes solid at room temperature while vegetable oil does not. So vegetable oil may be substituted for melted shortening only in recipes that do not depend on shortening becoming solid for texture when cooled.
This cannot happen literally or chemically but an explanation similar to the question is given below. A solid can melt into a solid but this can happen only when we are making alloys. Suppose we are making the alloy bronze ( Cu + Sn). Then these metals are melted and mixed in different proportions. Then the mixture is cooled and the atoms freely mix and lock together to form bronze. In this process, copper is melted into tin and vice versa.
If solid wax is melted it becomes a liquid. In general the liquid which results from the melting of a solid has a greater volume than the original solid, though there are exceptions. One of the most important is to do with water. Usually if a liquid is cooled it loses volume and becomes more dense (heavier) and the heavier part will try to sink to the bottom. If this happened when water cooled close to freezing point, water in a pond, lake, river would sink to the bottom with the freezing water at the very bottom. A pond could thus become frozen solid, but water behaves in a curious way. From a temperature close to 4 degrees Centigrade down to the freezing temperature of zero degrees centigrade the water gradually expands and rises to the top of the lake. This means that except in the most shallow ponds the fish and other water-life have their supply of water guaranteed. A real life saver!
The volume of an ice cube in warm temperatures would decrease because it would melt and evaporate lots of the melted water. -Michelle Strafer
a liquid then if cooled further it would turn into a solid a liquid then if cooled further it would turn into a solid
