Typically the solid will both increase in temperature and expand, as the heat energy delivered to the solid causes its molecules to vibrate faster and to increase their spacing.

What happens to the energy as a liquid melts?

The solid absorbs energy from the surroundings, causing the molecules to move around and no longer be in a tight structure (solid) but moving around fairly easy (liquid).

When a solid turns into liquid is it giving off energy or taking in energy?

When a solid transforms into a liquid, it absorbs energy in the form of heat. This process is called melting, and it requires energy to break the bonds holding the solid together.

The change in which ice absorbs energy and melts is?

An endothermic change; or a change of state. Endothermic because it absorbs energy. Change of state because ti changes from a solid to a liquid.


Is solid carbon dixiode going to CO2 gas absorbing or releasing energy?

The process of solid carbon dioxide (dry ice) turning into CO2 gas is endothermic, meaning it absorbs energy from its surroundings. This absorption of energy causes the solid carbon dioxide to sublimate directly into a gas without passing through a liquid phase.


What happens at the melting point of an object?

At the melting point of an object, it transitions from a solid to a liquid state by absorbing heat energy. The temperature remains constant during the phase change as the solid absorbs energy to break intermolecular bonds and rearrange into a less structured form.


Is butter melting in a pan a physical change that absorbs energy?

Yes, butter melting in a pan is a physical change. It absorbs heat energy to change from a solid to a liquid state.


What happens to the energy level of solid water as it become liquid water?

The things that happens to the energy level of solid as it become liquid water is that the liquid has more energy than solid do. Simple as that! BY: ANONYMOUS :)


When water freezes it absorbs what?

When water freezes, it absorbs heat energy from its surroundings to undergo a phase change from a liquid to a solid. This absorbed heat energy is used to break the intermolecular bonds between water molecules, allowing them to form a more structured solid lattice arrangement.
