Question

What happens to the kinetic energy of partickes when,heat energy equal to latent heat of fusion is supplied to a solid at its melting point?Explain

Answer 1

Answer:

When heat is added to a particle, the molecules and atoms vibrate faster. then atoms vibrate faster, the space between atoms increases. The motion and spacing of the particles determines the state of matter of the substance. The end result of increased molecular motion is that the object expands and takes up more space.
