There is no fixed speed for the transition of a substance from the solid phase to the liquid phase. The maximum speed this can happen at is the speed of light as this is how fast the energy can be transferred to a molecule, and there is no minimum speed. Some substances do not melt into a liquid. Instead they make the transition straight from solid phase into gas phase, and this is called sublimation.
What else can I help you with?
Does solid to liquid rise in temperature?
Yes, when a solid is heated, its temperature increases as it absorbs heat energy. Once the solid reaches its melting point, it transitions into a liquid phase without a further increase in temperature until all the solid has melted.
How are freezing point and melting point alike?
The freezing point and melting point are both physical properties of a substance that indicate the temperature at which a substance changes from a solid to a liquid (melting point) or from a liquid to a solid (freezing point). Both points represent the temperature at which the substance transitions between these two states.
When a solid dissolves in liquid where does it go?
it doesnt go anywhere. The solid breaks up in really small pieces, and mixes with the liquid.
What is it called to go from a solid to liquid for kids?
The process of going from a solid to a liquid is called melting. When heat is applied to a solid, such as ice, it turns into a liquid form, which is water.
When a liquid loses heat what do they do to go a solid?
Freeze.
Is carbon a liquid at room temperature?
No. Carbon is a solid at room temperature and will sublimate (go from solid straight to gas i.e. no liquid) at 3900 Kelvin.
Does solid to liquid rise in temperature?
Yes, when a solid is heated, its temperature increases as it absorbs heat energy. Once the solid reaches its melting point, it transitions into a liquid phase without a further increase in temperature until all the solid has melted.
Why if you put a hot liquid on a cold solid the liquid turns into a solid?
It shows to go you that the cold solid object has much more than enough specfic cold to absorbe the heat of the liguid.
How does a solid goes to a liquid then go to a gas?
Definitely on heating a solid can change into liquid state because on heating the kinetic energy of the particles of solid increase and they move more freely.At stage a particular stage particles leave their definite place and solid change into liquid.Again when we heat liquid it changes into on a particular temperature at atmospheric temperature and this temperature is known as its boiling point
What does the latent heat of fusion represent?
The energy required to melt a substance. (Apex)
How does matter go from a solid to a liquid?
particles of solid gain energy from the higher temperature outside and begin to move faster overcoming the forces of attraction between the particles and turn into a liquid!
Are all fats liquid at room temperature?
No, they are not. Butter will not go liquid at room temperature, unless it's in a hot room. (In most moderate room temperatures it is still solid). Lard melts an an even higher temperature than butter. Generally it's animal fats that are solid at room temperature.
What is freezing an thawing?
Freezing is lowering temperature so that a liquid turns into a solid. Thawing is the opposite - warming a solid until it turns to liquid. Where foods are concerned, it's the liquid part of the food that makes it go solid and hard when frozen, and softens the food when thawed.
What happens when solid turns into gas?
The gas can't generally turn straight into a solid, it has to change into a liquid and then a solid. When a gas turns into a liquid, the particles go closer together into groups and condensate. When the liquid turns into a solid, the particles all compress into a small space thus making a solid object.-----------------------------------------------------------------------But the phenomenon of change from a gas to a solid is also very known and is called deposition.
How are freezing point and melting point alike?
The freezing point and melting point are both physical properties of a substance that indicate the temperature at which a substance changes from a solid to a liquid (melting point) or from a liquid to a solid (freezing point). Both points represent the temperature at which the substance transitions between these two states.
What happens to water when it changes state from a solid to a liquid?
When water changes state from a solid to a liquid, it melts. This process occurs when the temperature of the solid water (ice) increases and reaches its melting point, where the bonds between water molecules weaken and the solid structure breaks down, turning it into liquid water.
When a solid dissolves in liquid where does it go?
it doesnt go anywhere. The solid breaks up in really small pieces, and mixes with the liquid.
