The metal is melted when it is heated.
- Metals are hard, ductile and malleable solids. They are high conductors of heat and electricity.
- When metals are heated the thermal motion and kinetic energy of the particles increases. The particles start moving randomly and undergo thermal expansion.
- Due to expansion, the metal starts melting.
- At a time the solid metal is melted into a liquid.
