Generally melting is a warming process because whatever is being melted absorbs latent heat to change states from solid to liquid or liquid to gas. An exact figure can't be given because the amount of latent heat depends not only on the substance but also on the pressure. The latent heat required to melt ice to water is ABOUT 336kj/kg (kilojoules per kilogram). There are exceptions such as gases and liquids at the what is called the critical point or triple point.
No!!!!
What else can I help you with?
Are icecaps liquid?
no they are ice, bur due to global warming are melting fast
What is the melting process in earth's interior?
The melting process in Earth's interior occurs primarily in the mantle and is driven by high temperatures and pressures. As tectonic plates move, they can cause localized melting through processes such as decompression melting, where a drop in pressure allows mantle rocks to melt, and flux melting, where the addition of water and other volatiles lowers the melting point of rocks. This melting produces magma, which can rise towards the surface, potentially leading to volcanic activity. Additionally, heat from radioactive decay and residual heat from Earth's formation contributes to maintaining the high temperatures necessary for melting.
What do you do to purify a metal?
You have to get it hot enough where you get to the melting point of the metal. During this melting process the impurities will be removed from the metal and your end result is a purer metal.
What is the name of the proccess when a solid becomes a liquid?
The process is named "fusion" or "melting".
What is the average thickness of a glacier?
The average thickness of glaciers decrease every year due to global warming and the melting of the polar ice caps. The average thickness of the Himalayan glacier is 85 and 175 meters thick.
What process is making the Atlantic ocean get bigger over time?
Global warming is melting the icebergs, raising the water level
Why is the arctic melting?
global warming
What is global warming doing?
Global warming is melting the glaciers throughout the earth's surface.
What is global warming doing to the world?
the poles are melting
What does the ice caps melting got to do with the depletin of the ozone layer?
Melting ice caps are because of global warming. This global warming also causes ozone depletion.
What are the sign of ending of the world?
global warming melting of glaciers
Are polar caps melting?
yes, because of global warming.
What part of the earth is melting because of global warming?
Glaciers and ice caps are melting. The ice over Greenland is melting and so is the Arctic sea ice.
Is the Arctic endangered?
Yes because the ice is melting from global warming
How will India be affected by global warming?
yes the Himalayas melting affect
How do humans effect resources?
We are causing global warming which is melting the ice.
Is melting of glacier a air pollution?
no. actually it is because of Global Warming.
