The Theory
Can you define the melting point of a solid?
Melting point of a solid is defined as the temperature at which a solid changes into a liquid. Melting point of a solid indicates the strength of the force of attraction between the particles of the solid. On heating a solid, its molecules absorb energy in the form of heat and their kinetic energy increases.
As the kinetic energy increases, the temperature of the solid increases. As a result, the force of attraction between the molecules decreases and the molecules become more and more separated. This increases the potential energy of the molecule and the particles leave their fixed positions and start moving more freely.
At a particular temperature, the separation of the molecules increases by a large amount and the solid melts and converts into liquid. This particular temperature is the melting point of that solid. The melting point of a pure substance is always higher than the melting point of that substance when a small amount of an impurity is present. Pressure also affects the melting point of a substance. As the pressure on the substance increases, the melting point decreases.
