Because melting occur at high temperature; at this temperature bonds between particles are weaker.

When melting occur and what is it called?

Melting occur at the melting point. The solid is transformed in a liquid.


When does the melting point occur?

Melting occur when a solid starts to be a liquid.


What are the similarities for freezing and melting?

Both freezing and melting involve a change in the state of matter from solid to liquid or liquid to solid, respectively. The temperature at which freezing and melting occur is the same for a given substance, known as the freezing/melting point. During both processes, energy in the form of heat is either released (freezing) or absorbed (melting).


Is melting heat gain or heat loss?

Melting is a process that requires heat to change a solid substance into a liquid, so it is a heat gain process. Heat is absorbed to break the bonds between the molecules in the solid and allow them to move more freely as a liquid.


What must occur to the heat energy of an object in order of a phase change of the state of matter?

During a phase change, the heat energy of an object must either be absorbed or released to allow the particles to overcome intermolecular forces and rearrange into a new phase. For example, during melting, heat energy is absorbed to break the intermolecular bonds holding the solid together and transition it into a liquid.


Is melting ice endothermic or exothermic change?

Ice cream melting (or pretty much anything melting) is an endothermic process in that it requires the absorption of heat energy in order to occur. An example of an exothermic process is the burning of paper which gives off heat energy.


What is the difference between melting and evaporation?

Melting is the process of a solid turning into a liquid when heat is applied, while evaporation is the process of a liquid turning into a gas without heat being applied. Melting usually occurs at a specific temperature for each substance, while evaporation can occur at any temperature, as long as the liquid has enough energy to transition into a gas.


What is the scientific name for ice forming and melting?

For forming it is Heat of (Fusion) and for melting its Heat of (Vaporization).


If a substance is not at its melting or boiling point as the heat content of a sample of matter increases what happens?

If the heat content of a sample rises and it's not at a phase transition temperature, the temperature will go up. (Melting and boiling points are the two most familiar phase transition temperatures, though there are others.)


What makes melting happen?

Heat.


How do you make something melting?
