Temperature remains constant during a phase change.
(This hold true for most small samples, of course an iceberg would have temperature variation throughout its volume.)
At its melting point all the energy being added to the ice will go toward melting it. In order for ice to melt there are "bonds" that need to be broken. (look up crystallization) These bonds require energy to break. So, until all the bonds are broken the temperature will not increase.

What is melting points and the boiling points?
Melting point: the temperature at which a solid become a liquid. Boiling point: the temperature at which a liquid become a gas.
What becomes a solid above the melting point?
The melting point is the temperature which a material, element or mixture, changes from the solid to a liquid. Therefore, all liquids become solids above the melting point.
What is another way of describing a freezing point?
Melting is equivalent to freezing: a temperature when a solid become a liquid.
What is the physical state of a substance whose melting point is below the room temperature?
A substance with a melting point below room temperature would typically be in a solid state at room temperature. However, it may start to melt or become a liquid as the temperature increases.
Did the temperature fluctuate while the is melting?
No. The temperature does not change during the melting process. All of the heat energy is used to break the bonds of the solid to form a liquid, i.e. the energy is used in the phase change, and thus is not used to raise the temperature.
What is melting points and the boiling points?
Melting point: the temperature at which a solid become a liquid. Boiling point: the temperature at which a liquid become a gas.
When you reach the temperature of what point you become a liquid.?
melting
What is the melting point Freezing point?
Freezing and melting points are synonyms: at this temperature a solid become a liquid or a liquid become a solid.
At what temperature does liquid become solid?
At its melting point. For example, the melting point of ice is 0 degrees celsius, so ice (solid) will melt to become water (liquid) at this temperature.
When solid NaCl is heated from room temperature it melts. Explain the change?
By heating the internal energy of a solid increase what leads to melting when the crystalline system is destroyed and the solid become a liquid.
How is melting point of a substance defined?
This is the temperature when a solid become a liquid.
What temperature for zinc to become a solid?
The melting point of zinc is 419,53 oC.
Which is true of a melting point and a boiling point?
A melting point is the temperature at which a substance changes from a solid to a liquid state, while a boiling point is the temperature at which a substance changes from a liquid to a gas. Both melting and boiling points are characteristic physical properties of a substance and can be used to identify and classify materials.
What happens when fluid changes from a liquid state by a reduction in its temperature?
When temperature becomes below the melting point, it 'freezes' to become solid.
What becomes a solid above the melting point?
The melting point is the temperature which a material, element or mixture, changes from the solid to a liquid. Therefore, all liquids become solids above the melting point.
What do terms boiling points and freezing point mean?
Melting (freezing) point: the temperature when the solid metal become a liquid. Boiling point: the temperature when the liquid metal become a gas.
What is another way of describing a freezing point?
Melting is equivalent to freezing: a temperature when a solid become a liquid.
