Question

9)The melting point of ice is 0°C. At this temperature, both ice and water exist. However, the particles of water at 0°C have more energy than particles of ice at 0°C. What explains this? *

1 point

at melting point, ice particles raise their temperature and change to water

at melting point, water particles raise their temperature and change into ice

at melting point, water particles absorb more heat and change into ice

at melting point, ice particles absorb latent heat and change into water particles

​

Answer 1

Answer:

ice particles absorb latent heat and change into water particles

Answer 2

Answer:

Due to Latent heat of fusion.

Hence option D.

Explanation:

As we know that the ice absorb heat during the process of conversion from ice to liquid state & as water has been already absorbed the latent heat of fusion because of which it has less kinetic energy. That's why water has more energy than the particles of ice.
