Why doesn't the temperature of water change during melting?
The melting and freezing temperature of water are the same: 0o C; thus, both water and ice can exist at this temperature. Lets say a block of ice is starting at a temperature below the melting point. As the temperature of the ice rises, the heat energy being transfered into it goes to raising its temperature, but when the temperature reaches the melting point, the heat energy introduced does not go into raising the temperature but instead into breaking the bonds holding it as a solid. The ice-water mixture will remain at 0o until all of the ice has fully melted. Only after all of the ice has melted does the heat energy go into heating the water.
What is the energy required to go from liquid to gas called?
The latent heat of vaporization
Why temperature remains constant during the process of melting or boiling?
During melting or boiling, the temperature remains constant because the heat energy is being used to break the bonds between the molecules of the substance, rather than increasing the kinetic energy of the molecules. Once all the bonds are broken, the temperature will start to increase again.
Where does the heat energy from a hot cup of tea go?
ah doi of course by losing heat tothe surrounding lah omg
When acid and base react what happens to the temperature?
When an acid and a base react, there is a possibility of an exothermic or endothermic reaction occurring, depending on the specific acids and bases involved. An exothermic reaction releases heat energy, leading to an increase in temperature, while an endothermic reaction absorbs heat energy, causing a decrease in temperature.
