Q4. Define the terms.
(a) Melting (b) Vaporisation (c) Solidification.
Answers
Melting, or fusion, is a physical process that results in the phase transition of a substance from a solid to a liquid. This occurs when the internal energy of the solid increases, typically by the application of heat or pressure, which increases the substance's temperature to the melting point.
Vaporization (or vaporisation) of an element or compound is a phase transition from the liquid phase to vapour. There are two types of vaporization: evaporation and boiling. Evaporation is a surface phenomenon, whereas boiling is a bulk phenomenon.
Freezing is a phase transition where a liquid turns into a solid when its temperature is lowered below its freezing point. In accordance with the internationally established definition, freezing means the solidification phase change of a liquid or the liquid content of a substance, usually due to cooling.
[Freezing is also called Solidification]
- Melting :-
To change or make something change from a solid to a liquid by means of heat.
2. Vaporization :-

3. Solidification :- ( also known as Freezing )
Solidification, also known as freezing, is a phase change of matter that results in the production of a solid. Generally, this occurs when the temperature of a liquid is lowered below its freezing point. Although the freezing point and melting.
