What is the changes in kinetic energy as a substance is heated to its melting point?

The kinetic energy increase.


The temperature at which the particles of a substance have more kinetic energy to transform is?

The melting or the boiling point.


The kinetic energy of a substance is the what kinetic energy of its particles?

The kinetic energy of a substance is the average kinetic energy of its particles.


What is the kinetic energy of a substance and the kinetic energy of its particles?

The kinetic energy of a substance is the average kinetic energy of its particles.


Water changes phases when heat is added or subtracted?

Boiling and melting are endothermic. Freezing is exothermic.


How is the kinetic energy of the particles that make up a substance different after it changes?

If you mean by heating it... When you heat a substance, the thermal energy of its particles increases. This means that the particles will move around faster as they have a higher kinetic energy.


Has thermal energy been transfered into or out of a substance if the average kinetic energy changes?

Temperature is a measure of the average KE of the PARTICLES of a substance. So if the temperature changes, ave KE changes, thus thermal energy will have been transferred.


What change is melting consider because energy is gained by the substance as it changes states?

Melting is a phase change in which a substance changes from the solid state to the liquid state. Changing phases is also a physical change.


What happens to substance during changes between gas to liquid?

The particles of the substance gain kinetic energy as they absorb heat energy. Eventually there is enough kinetic energy for the particles to escape the liquid phase, forming the gas phase.


Why the inter-particle space increases on heating a solid at its melting point?

when we heat a substance its kinetic energy increases and due to this kinetic energy the force of attraction decreases and can no longer hold the particles together.


Does the temperature change if the average kinetic energy of a substance changes?

When Ave KE increases temperature increases.


What happens to the kinetic energy of the particles of a substance as the changes from a liquid to a gas?

in my opinion, I don't really know
