depends on your point of view, but... it's not really absorbed in the strictest sence. by "freezing", i'm assuming you're intent is to say you are taking some substance, say water at room temperature, & then freezing it (lower it's temperature to or below the point at which the water becomes frozen).
what happens to the energy is, it is transferred out of the water, to somewhere else. if using a common refrigerator/freezer, the heat energy from the water is transferred to the air outside the frig, by use of gas compressor in the frig. a simpler way to look at it (but essentially the same thing... just a "one shot" in a sense) would be by using some compressed gas like liquid nitrogen & spraying the water with the liquid nitrogen. since liquid nitrogen boils at roughly -320 f (195.79 C), you would be transferring much of the heat energy stored in the water, into the liquid nitrogen, thus freezing it.
What else can I help you with?
Is energy absorbed or released during freezing?
Energy is released during freezing.
How is energy involved when substances change state?
When substances change state, energy is either absorbed or released. During melting and boiling, energy is absorbed to break the intermolecular forces holding the substance together, while during freezing and condensation, energy is released as these forces are formed. This energy change is due to the breaking or forming of bonds between molecules.
What are three changes of state during which energy is absorbed?
The three changes of state during which energy is absorbed is: conduction, convection, & radiation.
Is energy during evaporation released or absorbed?
energy is released
What energy is released during freezing?
Thermal.
How can the temp of a substance remain the same if it is absorbing energy?
The temperature of a substance can remain the same while absorbing energy if it is undergoing a phase change, such as melting or boiling. During a phase change, the absorbed energy is used to break intermolecular bonds rather than increase the kinetic energy of the particles, which keeps the temperature constant.
Is energy released during fission but absorbed during fusion?
Energy is released during fusion and fission.
What type of energy is used during of the process of freezing?
none. energy is lost and that is thermal
When water is freezing is thermal energy released or absorbed?
When water freezes, thermal energy is released from the water as it changes from a liquid to a solid. This released energy is responsible for lowering the temperature of the water to its freezing point and then further to form ice.
Which of these occurs during an endothermic reaction?
energy is absorbed
Forms of energy absorbed during chemical reaction?
For example thermal energy.
Which form of energy is absorbed by green plants during phase1?
light energy
