All elements in their pure form has a melting point. By pure I mean that they are not in combination with other elements to form specific compounds. (oxygen has a melting point, so does hydrogen etc.). An egg, on the other hand, is made up out of a lot of different elements, and will therefore not neccessarally melt, as pure elements does. As you know, eggs contain a lot of proteins, and at high temperatures proteins denature. This is then what causes eggs to become hard instead of melting.

What happens to an ice when it is heated?

When ice is heated, it absorbs heat energy and melts into liquid water. The temperature of the ice remains at 0 degrees Celsius until it has completely melted.


When a solid is heated up and turns to a liquid what does it do?

it melts.It is because ,for example ,if a boy has a dozen of ice , and he forgets to put it back,then the ice melts over time.Then ,when the boy go looks for the ice it had turned into water and what had happen was because the ice was in heat over night .That is why the ice melts and the heat helps the ice melts.


How does ice melt and what usually causes it?

Ice melts because of heat, when it is heated, the particles start vibrating and slowly turns into its liquid state - water


What increase when matter is heated?

When matter is heated, the kinetic energy of its particles increases. This causes the particles to move faster and farther apart, leading to an expansion in volume. In addition, the temperature of the matter increases as heat energy is absorbed.


What happened when butter is heated?

When butter is heated, it melts and undergoes a process known as clarification, where the milk solids separate from the fat. As it continues to heat, the milk solids may brown and give the butter a nutty flavor. However, if heated for too long, the milk solids can burn and give the butter a burnt or bitter taste.

How can you change the state of matter of a substance, transitioning it from a solid to a liquid or from a liquid to a gas?

You can change the state of matter of a substance by applying heat to it. When you heat a solid, it melts into a liquid. When you heat a liquid, it evaporates into a gas. This process is known as melting and boiling.


What is heat transfer resulting from rising particles in heated matter?

This is known as convection heat transfer. As particles in a heated substance rise, they carry heat energy with them, causing cooler particles to move in to take their place. This circulation creates a transfer of heat throughout the substance.


What is the transfer of heat by the movement of heated matter?

Convection because some examples of this is through liquid and/or gas.


What happens to most matter when heated?

When matter is heated the particles in the matter gain energy and begin to move or vibrate more depending on the state in which the matter is currently in. If the heat provided is significant enough they can change state too. Hope that was what you were looking for!
