How does what happens to the particles in a substance during melting differ from what happens in freezing?

Its the degree of attachment between the molecules of the substance:
frozen (solid) the arrangement is fixed.
melted (liquid) the arrangement is loose enough to be modified by gravity.
evaporated: (gas) the attachment becomes insignificant.

∙ 12y agoWhen something is heated the particles inside it begin to move faster and faster and that causes the heat, when something is frozen the opposite occurs the particles inside it move slower and slower and probably stop moving all together

∙ 15y agoBy melting a substance you are changing its state of matter from a Solid to a Liquid but freezing is changing a substance from a Liquid to a Solid.

What is its melting point when the freezing point of a substance is 68C?
The freezing point is 680C
Which of the following forms a new substance melting freezing evaporating burning?
Burning chemically alters a substance, creating different / new substances as a result. Melting, freezing, and evaporating are all different phases of the same substance.
A liquid changes back into a solid by freezing at what point?
The FREEZING POINT ----- which for a pure substance (as opposed to a mixture)is the same thing as the melting point since they are both the point at which the liquid phase of a substance would be in equilibrium with the solid. For a mixture, the two would be different and you would get a freezing point range that started at the freezing point and ended at the melting point
How does melting differ from freezing?
For any given substance the melting point and the freezing point are the SAME temperature. However, if the substance is increasiung in heat to move from solid to liquid then it is the MELTING POINT. If that same substance is losing heat to move from liquid to solid then it is the FREEZING POINT. Similarly, when moving from liquid to gas ity is the boiling point , and when moving from gas to liquid it is the condensing point.
How is the melting point of a substance related to its freezing point?
The melting point of a substance is when a substance turns from a solid to a liquid, and the freezing point is when a substance turns froma liquid to a sold. This of water, t he freezing point, when it turns to a solid (ice) is 0 degrees C. Hope that helps!
What happens to the particles of a liquid?
it depends on wether you are freezing the liquid, or melting the liquid.
How does what happens to the particles in a substance during melting differ from what happens during freezing?
When something is heated the particles inside it begin to move faster and faster and that causes the heat, when something is frozen the opposite occurs the particles inside it move slower and slower and probably stop moving all together
Are the melting point of solid and freezing point of liquid of a substance different?
yes the melting point of solid and freezing point of liquid of a substance is differ but in the case of water the melting and freezing point is same.
What processes do particles of matter absorb energy freezing and boili condensation and melting melting and vaporization or sublimation?
Particles absorb energy when boiling (vapourising), melting and subliming. Particles release energy when freezing and condensing.
What is the difference of melting and freezing?
When solid is converted into liquid then it is melting and when liquid is converted into sold it is freezing although Melting and Freezing point for a substance is the same.
When a substance changes from a solid to a liquid condensation melting or freezing?
melting.
Are the melting and freezing of a substance the same?
Yes. A substance melts and freezes at the same temperature. Melting is as it changes from solid to liquid, freezing is from liquid to solid.
What freezing point of a substance is the same as its?
(Melting Point)
Is the melting point the same temperature as the freezing point for a substance?
freezing ur mamas as
Freezing point of pure substance 21 degrees what is the melting point?
The melting point would also be 21 degrees because the freezing point and melting point of a pure substance is exactly the same.
How do the melting point and the freezing point of a substance compare?
Both indicate the temperature at which the solid and liquid states of a substance are in equilibrium.
What is its melting point when the freezing point of a substance is 68C?
The freezing point is 680C
