When a substance is heated, its internal energy increases and causes the particles to move more rapidly, breaking the bonds holding them in a solid state. This results in the substance transitioning from a solid to a liquid state, known as melting. The melting point is the specific temperature at which this transition occurs for a particular substance.

When a substance melt or boils it absorbs?
Heat
What kind of substance is a melting point?
what the heck are you asking? the melting point is not a substance. it's a temperature in which the substance starts to melt
The energy required to melt one gram of a substance is known as what?
The energy required to melt one gram of a substance is known as the heat of fusion.
What is the measurement of how much heat energy is required for a substance to melt?
The measurement of how much heat energy is required for a substance to melt is called the heat of fusion. It is the amount of energy required to change a substance from a solid to a liquid at its melting point.
What substance can easily melt?
One substance that can easily melt is ice. Ice melts at temperatures above 0 degrees Celsius (32 degrees Fahrenheit), causing it to change from a solid to a liquid state.
What is required to cause something to melt?
Melting is a change of state of a substance caused by an increase in thermal energy, so heat is required to melt a substance.
How do you distinguish a pure substance?
A pure substance will melt over a very narrowtemperature range.An impure substance will melt over a broader, lower temperature range.
Which substance will melt the ice first salt or sugar?
Salt will melt first.
What is the melting points of liquids?
liquids cant be melt only solid substance can melt
When a substance melt or boils it absorbs?
Heat
What process does the substance change from a gas to a liquid?
its not melt
When a substance melt what happens to its overall energy?
It increases
What process does a substance changes from a gas to a liquid?
its not melt
What kind of substance is a melting point?
what the heck are you asking? the melting point is not a substance. it's a temperature in which the substance starts to melt
The energy required to melt one gram of a substance is known as what?
The energy required to melt one gram of a substance is known as the heat of fusion.
Why does vegetable oil melt ice?
Mixing almost any substance with water will lower its freezing point. When you mix vegetable oil with ice, the long molecules disrupt the ice crystals forming, thus lowering the freezing point and cause it to melt.
What does the latent heat of fusion?
The energy required to melt a substance
