Explanation:

When a substance is provided energy in the form of heat, it's temperature increases. The extent of temperature increase is determined by the heat capacity of the substance. The larger the heat capacity of a substance, the more energy is required to raise its temperature.

When a substance undergoes a FIRST ORDER phase change, its temperature remains constant as long as the phase change remains incomplete. When ice at -10 degrees C is heated, its temperature rises until it reaches 0 degrees C. At that temperature, it starts melting and solid water is converted to liquid water. During this time, all the heat energy provided to the system is USED UP in the process of converting solid to the liquid. Only when all the solid is converted, is the heat used to raise the temperature of the liquid.

This is what results in the flat part of the freezing/melting of condensation/boiling curve. In this flat region, the heat capacity of the substance is infinite. This is the famous "divergence" of the heat capacity during a first order phase transition.

There are certain phase transitions where the heat capacity does not become infinitely large, such as the process of a non-magnetic substance becoming a magnetic substance (when cooled below the so-called Curie temperature).

Answer from: svnchezzz

These energy exchanges are not changes in kinetic energy. They are changes in bonding energy between the molecules. "If heat is coming into a substance during a phase change, then this energy is used to break the bonds between the molecules of the substance. The example we will use here is ice melting into water.

Answer from: Quest

the number of protons in the nucleus of a given element. has slight luster and conducts electricity at high temperatures like metal.but like a nonmetal,boron is brittle and does not conduct electricity well at low temperatures. in graphite, carbon is a soft,brittle solid.it is reflective,ductile,or malleable.

Answer from: Quest

If a hydrogen atom is neutral, it must also have one electron. an oxygen atom (o) has an atomic number of eight (8). this means a neutral oxygen atom has eight protons and eight electrons. the element actium (ac) has an atomic number of 89, so it has 89 protons and 89 electrons in a neutral atom
