explain why the potential energy increases when ice starts to melt and becomes liquid water (in 1-2 sentences)
1 answer
The potential energy increases when ice starts to melt and becomes liquid water because the intermolecular forces weaken and allow the water molecules to move more freely, resulting in increased disorder and higher potential energy.
