KE of the ice increases as it melts because the speed of each water molecule is increasing and KE is directly proportional to speed (usually called velocity, which just means speed + direction).

The average kinetic energy of the particles falls.


What happens when the temperature stays the same in a melting curve?

During melting the temperature remain constant if it was achieved the melting point.


Why does temperature does not rise during the process of boiling and melting though heat energy is constantly supplied?

you must have observed during the experiment of melting that the temperature of the system does not change after the melting point is reached till all the ice melts this happens even though we continue to heat the breaker that is we continue to supply heat


What happens during melting evaporation and solidifaction?

i dont know at all


Did the temperature fluctuate while the is melting?

No. The temperature does not change during the melting process. All of the heat energy is used to break the bonds of the solid to form a liquid, i.e. the energy is used in the phase change, and thus is not used to raise the temperature.


What happens to neon during melting point?

There are a number of things that could happen to neon while it is at its melting point. It could melt.


What happens to energy when matter undergoes chemical or physical change?

Energy can either be soaked up by the matter in the process of making the change (melting), or be released from the matter during the change (fire).


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.


When you heat ice on a hot stove the ice melts. What is happening during this process?

During the melting process, the heat is being used to break apart the bonds holding the solid ice together. None of the heat goes into changing the temperature, as it all goes into the phase change. So, during the actual melting process, the temperature does NOT change.


How does the energy added to ice during melting affect the potential and kinetic energy of the water molecules?

This is homework and if you look in your science book the answer is there. Look at your headings. You will find it.
