This process is called melting. When heat is applied to a solid material, it gains enough energy to overcome the forces holding the molecules in a solid-state, allowing them to move freely and transform into a liquid state.

Physical change - changes state, solid to liquid and/or liquid to gas. Chemical change - for instance, oxidises if present in air, but there are limitless possibilities.


When you mix two liquids with different temperatures what will happen?

When two liquids with different temperatures are mixed, heat will transfer from the hotter liquid to the cooler one until they reach thermal equilibrium. The temperature of the combined liquid will eventually become an average of the initial temperatures.

A change from a solid to a liquid involves what?

A change in internal energy. For a solid to become a liquid, more energy must be supplied than released since it is an endothermic reaction. For a solid to change to a liquid, heat must be applied to the lattice to break its structure and increase the average KE of its constituent molecules. I could have written 4 more lengthy paragraphs but that would just be a waste of time...

How is the heat transferred between the hot coffee and the part of the spoon that is in the hot coffee?

Heat will be transferred initially by conduction, which is the direct heat transfer between object (your hand and the liquid). If you leave your hand in long enough, convection will become a major factor. Convection is when currents from a liquid circulate to transfer heat.
