Question

what happens to the heat energy supplied when a solid has already melted?

Answer 1

When the temperature reaches themelting point, the solid, absorbsenergy and increases its internalenergy. ... At the same temperature, the solid absorbs an energy called the latent heat of fusion to change its state to liquid. After the solid melts, its temperature increases further if moreheat is supplied.Aug 24, 2014
