Basically because there is energy needed for the temperature to rise or become lower, but energy is also needed to change the phase, so instead of the energy being used to change the temperature, it is being used to change the phase, therefore temperature does not change.

Temperature is constant during a phase change.


What do you think will happen to the temperature of a substance during a phase change?

Typically, the temperature doesn't change during a phase change.


Does the temperature of a substance change before the change of state is complete?

No. During a phase change the temperature is constant until the phase change is complete.


How does temperature change during change of physical change?

Temperature remains constant during the change in phase (physical state).

Why does temperature no change during energy phase change?

During a phase change, the heat transferred to a substance is used to break intermolecular forces (latent heat), and thus the temperature of the substance does not change. The opposite also occurs: heat is transferred from a substance during a phase change without a decrease in temperature as intermolecular bonds form.


Does the temperature change while a phase chage is occurring?

No, the temperature does not change during a phase change. It remains constant until all the substance has undergone the phase change.


Does the energy content of a substance change during a phase change?

Yes, but not the temperature.
