The microwave oven can change water's solid form (ice) to liquid. It can also change water's liquid form into that of a gas (steam).
Yes, matter can change its state when heat is added or removed. For example, adding heat to ice causes it to melt into water, while removing heat from water causes it to freeze into ice. This process is known as a phase change.
A microwave heats water by causing its molecules to vibrate rapidly through a process called dielectric heating. This agitation generates heat that warms the water quickly and evenly. This is why microwave ovens are often used to heat food containing water or liquids.
Yes; for example evaporation of water or other volatile compounds is physical change.
Yes - but it won't heat the water in the picture. It might burn the picture a bit depending on the settings.
yes, pop it into the microwave (but it might smell) or you can stir in a little hot water
The evaporation of water is an example of a physical change, where water changes from its liquid state to a gaseous state without any change in its chemical composition.
The best way to safely microwave a hot water bottle is to heat the water in a separate microwave safe container in the microwave and then put the microwaved, hot water into the water bottle.
This is called a change in the physical state of the substance. For example formation of ice from water is a change in the physical state of water.
True. Water can change from a solid state (ice) to a liquid state (water), and from a liquid state to a gaseous state (steam) depending on the temperature and pressure conditions.
The microwave rays heat it.
No, the process of water being split into hydrogen and oxygen is a chemical change, not a change of state. During this process, new substances are formed through a chemical reaction, rather than a change in the physical state of the water molecules.
The change that occurred to the water is a physical change. In this case, the water changed from a liquid state to a solid state without altering its chemical composition.
