Solidifying upon heating is not a property of any particular compound, but rather of a class of unstable materials called "supercooled" liquids. If a liquid is cooled below its freezing point, with care to avoid agitation and/or the presence of any crystal nuclei, the liquid can remain in the liquid state for some time and as much as several degrees below its equilibrium freezing temperature. Slight heating, because of the convective agitation that the heating induces within the liquid, can then cause the liquid to freeze.

Which liquid solidifies on heating?
none idiot. anything that is heated becomes less solid as the ionic bonds are reduced to ions. idiot.
Is a white solid obtained by heating magnesium a mixture an element or compound?
It is a compound.
A substance X on heating gives B and C What is X a compound or a mixture?
It may be a compound as CaCO3 which on heating gives CaO and CO2, it may be a mixture as mixture of Naphthalene and sand which on heating gives naphthalene and sand.
Why the process of heating hydrate compound should be heated slowly first?
Otherwise the compound will scorch!
What are some limitations of using heating to determine whether the substance is an element or a compound?
limitation of heating element
What happened after heating the iron filing and sulfur?
after heating a compound named iron sulphide is formed which is a non-metal
Why don't wood melt on heating?
wood doesn't melt on heating because while heating the compound required to change that substance into liquid gets evaporated quickly when we start heating.
What compound was decomposed sugar or salt?
Sugar is easily decomposed by heating.
What methods of action can separate solute from solvent in a true solution?
heating the compound. ex: water salt mixture on a heating pad
Does organic compound decompose at high temperature?
The decomposition temperature depends on the compound. But many organic compounds do decompose on heating.
How does soudium acitate work?
Sodium acetate is composed of sodium ions and acetate ions, forming a compound. It finds frequent application in heating pads or hand warmers. As it transitions from a liquid to a solid state, it undergoes exothermic crystallization, resulting in the release of heat. In essence, it becomes hot when it solidifies. This fascinating phenomenon provides a warming effect.
