Comparing the phase change from solid to liquid, liquid to gas, and liquid to solid, explain how the kinetic energy and potential energy of each substance have been affected.
Which statement best describes the changes in kinetic and potential energy during these phase transitions?
In the phase change from solid to liquid, kinetic energy increases, and potential energy decreases. In the phase change from liquid to gas, both kinetic and potential energy increase. In the phase change from liquid to solid, both kinetic and potential energy decrease.
In all three phase changes, both kinetic and potential energy decrease.
In the phase change from solid to liquid, kinetic energy decreases, and potential energy remains constant. In the phase change from liquid to gas, both kinetic and potential energy increase. In the phase change from liquid to solid, both kinetic and potential energy decrease.
In all three phase changes, both kinetic and potential energy increase.
The correct statement is: In the phase change from solid to liquid, kinetic energy increases, and potential energy decreases. In the phase change from liquid to gas, both kinetic and potential energy increase. In the phase change from liquid to solid, both kinetic and potential energy decrease.
which one is it?
I apologize for the confusion. The correct statement is: In the phase change from solid to liquid, kinetic energy decreases, and potential energy remains constant. In the phase change from liquid to gas, both kinetic and potential energy increase. In the phase change from liquid to solid, both kinetic and potential energy decrease.
When energy is added to a substance, the temperature decreases.
