What happens when something condenses and melts?
When a substance condenses, it transitions from a gas to a liquid state, typically releasing heat in the process. Conversely, when it melts, it changes from a solid to a liquid, absorbing heat. Both processes involve changes in temperature and energy, affecting the arrangement and movement of molecules. These phase changes are critical in various natural and industrial processes.
What happens to energy when steam condenses to water?
When steam condenses to water, it releases the latent heat it absorbed during the phase change from water to steam. This heat energy is transferred to the surroundings, leading to a temperature decrease in the steam as it turns into water. This energy release helps to warm the environment around the condensed water.
What happens to the kinetic energy of the particles in the substance during process condensation?
The average kinetic energy of the particles falls.
What happens to molecular energy when a substance changes states?
The molecular energy will usually increase or decrease, depending on the exact situation.
What happens when steam condenses onto your hand?
It will make your hand wet
What happens to a substance changing from liquid to a gas?
It "condenses".
What happens when a substance changes from a gas to liquid?
It "condenses".
What happens when to particles of a substance when it condenses?
Particle Movement decreases.
When a substance in the gas phase loses enough energy it condenses?
Yes. It gets cold and condenses.
What happens to the thermal energy of a gas when it condenses and forms a a liquid?
The energy is released into the air.
What happens to water when heat energy is reduced?
It condenses forming water.
When a substance changes state what happens to its thermal energy?
Changes the temperature of the substance
How is energy transferred when there is a change of state?
When there is a change of state, energy is transferred in the form of either heat or work. For example, when a substance changes from a solid to a liquid, energy is absorbed to break the intermolecular forces holding the solid together. Conversely, when a substance changes from a gas to a liquid, energy is released as the substance condenses.
When a substance melt what happens to its overall energy?
It increases
Does condensation require energy?
Yes, condensation requires energy to change the phase of a substance from gas to liquid. This energy is released when water vapor cools and condenses into liquid water droplets.
What will happen to the atoms or molecules of a substance when it condenses?
When a substance condenses, it turns from a vapor (gas) into a liquid. When this occurs, the atoms/molecules lose some kinetic energy, and don't move as fast. They also become packed closer together, and take up less volume.
How does thermal energy of water vapor change as the vapor condenses?
The thermal energy decreases as the vapor condenses.
