If a liquid changes into a solid it freezes. When you place an ice cube tray with liquid water into the freezer, it will turn into a solid we call ice. If you take that solid ice out of the freezer and leave it on the counter, it will melt into a liquid once again.

When ice is melted the volume of the ice decreases?

When ice melts, it transforms from a solid to a liquid, which results in a decrease in volume. The molecules in the solid ice are packed more tightly than in the liquid water, leading to a lower volume when the ice melts.


How the arrangement and motion of the particle change when a solid melts a liquid boils a gas condensesa liquid freezes?

When a solid melts to become liquid, or a liquid boils to become a gas, the arrangement of particles gets farther apart and less structured, and the motion of the molecules becomes more random and they move faster. The opposite happens when a gas condenses to become a liquid, or when a liquid freezes to become a solid.


When ice melts does the particles melt and change into liquid?

When ice melts, the particles do not change into a liquid; rather, the solid ice transforms into liquid water. The molecules in the ice gain enough energy to break their fixed positions and move more freely as a liquid.


A change that occurs when a solid melts or a liquid freezes is an example of a phase change?

Yes, when a solid melts or a liquid freezes, it is an example of a phase change. This transition occurs due to a change in temperature, where energy is either absorbed (melting) or released (freezing) causing the particles to rearrange from a fixed position in a solid to a more fluid state in a liquid or vice versa.


What happens if a ice cube embedded with a cork melts?

If the ice cube melts, the cork will float on the liquid water that was previously frozen as ice. Cork is less dense than water, so it will float rather than sink.

What happens to a diamond when it melts?

Diamonds' molecular structure is such that when one melts, it transforms into something else, so that what melts is no longer a diamond.Another AnswerDiamond mineral has the highest melting point of any mineral: 3,820 degrees Kelvin.* Once melted, the above answer is correct: it's no longer the diamond that you're familiar with and can never be reconstituted as such.*3,547º C. or 6,416.6º F.

What property is 0 c?

It is the temperature at which, at normal atmospheric pressure, liquid water freezes and solid ice melts.


The temperature at which a substance freezes is also its what?

The answer is that the temperature a substance freezes is also its melting point. Water freezes at 0 degrees Celsius into ice and if you heat ice up to 0 degrees Celsius it MELTS to give you water. Evaporation is the change from liquid to gas and condensation is the change from gas to liquid (for water this happens at 100 degrees Celsius).


Are the melting and freezing of a substance the same?

Yes. A substance melts and freezes at the same temperature. Melting is as it changes from solid to liquid, freezing is from liquid to solid.
