why does the temperature remains constant at the melting point

hey mate here's ur ans ^_^
During melting, the heat being added to a substance goes into breaking apart the "molecules" or breaking down the crystal lattice, not into raising the temperature. During the phase change all the molecules continue to have the same kinetic energy, and therefore the temperature remains constant.
hope it helpzz uhhh

because at that temperature the amount of extra heat which is being supplied to the substance is used in Breaking the intermolecular forces so the temperature remains constant and the until the state of matter changes the heat is used to break intermolecular forces and hence after the breaking of intermolecular forces temperature rises again.
