When the particles in a solid get hotter, they gain kinetic energy and begin to vibrate more vigorously. As the temperature increases, these vibrations can cause the particles to move slightly apart from each other, potentially leading to a phase change if the temperature rises enough (e.g., melting). This increased movement can also affect the solid's structural integrity and properties, such as its strength and rigidity.
The particles move faster. Thermal energy is a measure of kinetic energy of molecules.
When enough heat is added to a solid, the particles gain enough energy to overcome the forces holding them in a fixed position. As a result, the particles move more freely and the solid melts into a liquid.
When a solid dissolves in a solvent, the particles of the solid break apart and disperse evenly throughout the solvent. This process involves the separation of the solvent molecules and the solute particles. The solute particles become surrounded by solvent molecules, forming a homogeneous mixture known as a solution.
Kinetic energy is possessed by virtue of the motion of particles. In solids, particles are tightly packed, so the can not move easily(hence the rigidity). In gases, particles are loosely packed, so they can move more freely(hence its ability to flow). Therefore, KE of particles increases when a solid changes to gas.
The particles spread apart, making the substance less dense. The particles also spread apart to fill more space. Also, the movement of said particles become more active.
When energy is transfered to something which conducts heat, the particles in the solid object start to vibrate. As more energy is transfered to the particles, it spreads across the solid objects particles. The hotter the solid, the more it's particles vibrate.

When an object gets hotter, the particles within the object gain more energy and start to move faster. This increased movement causes the particles to spread apart, leading to expansion of the object. If the object is a solid, the increased energy may be enough to break the bonds holding the particles together, causing the object to melt and change state.
My best guess is that the particles weaken.

they move faster, eventually changing the solid into a liquid
The average speed of the particles decreases.
When things get hotter, the particles within the object gain more energy and move faster, leading to an increase in the object's temperature. This can cause the object to expand, change state (e.g., from a solid to a liquid), or even undergo chemical reactions. In living organisms, excessive heat can cause overheating and damage to cells and tissues.
