The heat energy, or enthalpy, associated with a solid to liquid transition is the enthalpy of fusion and that associated with a solid to gas transition is the enthalpy of sublimation.

What are 5 physical changes that can occur to a substance?

Melting: The substance changes from a solid to a liquid as heat is applied. Freezing: The substance changes from a liquid to a solid as it loses heat. Evaporation: The substance changes from a liquid to a gas as it is heated. Condensation: The substance changes from a gas to a liquid as it cools. Sublimation: The substance changes directly from a solid to a gas without going through a liquid phase.


What is the point at which a substance changes from a solid to a liquid?

A substance changes from a solid to a liquid at its melting point


What is a change of state in which energy is added as it changes state?

Solid --> Liquid. Liquid -> Gas. Solid --> Gas.


Does melting occur when a substance changes from a liquid to a solid?

This change in the state of matter (liquid to solid) is called freezing, not melting; it is a physical change, the chemical nature of the molecules is not changed.


Do substances absorb or release heat energy as then change from a liquid to the solid phase?

When a substance changes from a liquid to a solid it releases energy. (You take the heat out)


What happens when a substance changes state from a solid or liquid?

When a substance changes state from a solid to a liquid, it undergoes melting where it gains enough energy to break the bonds holding its particles together. When it changes from a liquid to a gas, it undergoes vaporization where it gains enough energy to overcome the forces of attraction between its particles.


How is energy transferred when there is a change of state?

When there is a change of state, energy is transferred in the form of either heat or work. For example, when a substance changes from a solid to a liquid, energy is absorbed to break the intermolecular forces holding the solid together. Conversely, when a substance changes from a gas to a liquid, energy is released as the substance condenses.


When a substance changes from a solid to a liquid condensation melting or freezing?

When a substance changes from a solid to a liquid, it is called melting. Freezing refers to the opposite process when a substance changes from a liquid to a solid. Condensation is the process of a gas turning into a liquid.


What is the temperature called at which a substance changes from a solid to a liquid?

The temperature at which a substance changes from a solid to a liquid is called the melting point.
