Adding or removing energy in the form of heat causes the phase change. The amount of heat to be added or removed is called latent heat. It changes the state of a substance without changing it's temperature.
There are two types of latent heat. The latent heat of fusion, and the latent heat of vaporization.
The latent heat of fusion must be added to change phase from solid to liquid, and removed to change from liquid to solid. The first change is endothermic and the second change is exothermic.
The latent heat of vaporization must be added to change phase from liquid to vapor, and removed to change from vapor to liquid. Again the first change is endothermic and the second change is exothermic.
temperature remains constant
Heat energy changes.
Phase changes requiring the addition of heat energy are the phase changes from solid to liquid, liquid to gas, and solid to gas. These phase changes are termed melting (solid to liquid), evaporation (liquid to gas), and sublimation (solid to gas).
Evaporating and condensing
a great amount of water vaptor change phase to become liquid water droplets in the clouds that form a thunderstorm. does this phase change release or absord energy? how do you know
A phase change is a physical change. It is not a chemical change.
Gas to liquid change releases energy.
Phase changes requiring the addition of heat energy are the phase changes from solid to liquid, liquid to gas, and solid to gas. These phase changes are termed melting (solid to liquid), evaporation (liquid to gas), and sublimation (solid to gas).
Condensation
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.
It is converted to bond energy
hy
Increasing the temperature a solid material become a liquid and further a gas.
Liquid to solid
Heat energy changes.
e = m c squared ... they are 2 aspects of the same thing.
It doesn't change notwithstanding heat energy changes.
no phase shift
