What happens to the heat energy which is supplied to the solid once it has started melting?

During the phase change of a solid to a liquid (melting), all of the energy goes into breaking the intermolecular bonds holding the molecules of the solid together, and none of the energy goes into changing the temperature. Thus, during this particular phase of melting, the temperature of the system does NOT change.

When heat is supplied to a solid substance what happens to the energy?
The energy must be supplied to the solid so that it melts.
What happens to a wavelength if no energy is supplied to it?
without energy there cannot be a wavelength.
What happens to the energy supplied when water is evaporating?
Energy is conserved. It becomes the the dynamic energy of the water molecule.
Twenty percent of the world's energy is supplied by?
Twenty percent of the worlds energy is supplied by natural gas.
Is energy required for melting?
yes. It takes energy to raise the temperature of the solid to the melting point.
What happens to the heat energy which is supplied to the solid once it starts melting?
when solid has already melted and when heat is supplied it starts increasing the temperature of liquid
When heat is supplied to a solid substance what happens to the energy?
The energy must be supplied to the solid so that it melts.

without energy there cannot be a wavelength.
What happens to the energy supplied when water is evaporating?
Energy is conserved. It becomes the the dynamic energy of the water molecule.
Why does temperature does not rise during the process of boiling and melting though heat energy is constantly supplied?
you must have observed during the experiment of melting that the temperature of the system does not change after the melting point is reached till all the ice melts this happens even though we continue to heat the breaker that is we continue to supply heat
When does energy when you eat food?
When you eat food, chemical energy is converted to mechanical energy. This happens when ATP is supplied to the muscles, enabling movement.
Why temperature remains constant during the process of melting or boiling?
This is because of latent heat. When a substance is being melted, heat is supplied to the solid until its melting point is reached. When the solid reaches that temperature, any additional heat energy is used - not to raise its temperature - but to cause the phase to change from solid to liquid. The amount of energy required (per unit mass) is the latent heat of melting (or freezing, when the process is reversed) for that substance. When the phase change is complete, any further heat energy supplied will, once again, go towards raising the temperature.The same thing happens at the boiling point except that this time it is the latent heat of evaporation/condensation.
Explain melting and freezing according to the kintic theory of matter?
When heat is supplied to a solid, the kinetic energy of the particles increases, they move away from each other
What happens when the temperature of a solid reaches is melting point?
The kinetic energy exceeds the inermolecular forces (Apex)
Twenty percent of the world's energy is supplied by?
Twenty percent of the worlds energy is supplied by natural gas.
Why the temperature does not rise during the process of melting and boiling though the heat energy is constantly supplied?
The energy must be applied to the phase change before it can heat the substance
What happens if an atom is supplied with excess energy?
An electron may change to an excited state, and an electron may move to a higher orbit.
