Question

MEDAL AND FAN!!



If the temperature did not change while heat was being added, what was happening to the ice or the water at that time?

Answer 1

@satellite73 do u know this??

Answer 2

oh god

Answer 3

Satellite usually does Math. That is his specialty

Answer 4

This could help you: http://is.gd/8GelPt

Answer 5

at that time, ice melting and so, occurs 0 Celcius ice and water solution.

Answer 6

nothing would happen is still my answer @iribeiro1602

Answer 7

thanks i will read it! @muratcankalem

Answer 8

that is called as latent hear of fusion.
all the heat is being used up to increase inter-molecular distances and the ice will melt into a liquid

Answer 9

@electrokid even though there is no temperature rise?

Answer 10

the reverse process is also true..
if you take out the heat from the system, first, all the water will solidify at "0 degrees C" and then its temperature will decrease

Answer 11

yes
heat is energy. you provide heat to a system, the particles of the material gain enbergy and and start to vibrate more and temperature will rise.

if the material is a solid, at one temperature, the particles cannot vibrate in "solid" mode and have to increase the distances between molecules and it changes to liquid. once all the particles have changed to liquid, then the particles can vibrate more and more

Answer 12

good answer but read again the question "If the TEMPERATURE did not change while HEAT was being ADDED, what was happening to the ice or the water at that time?"

Answer 13

once the liquid attains a certain temperatiure, the particles get to a maximum vibration mode and to vibrate any more, they have to change to gaseuous form -> this temperature is called the latent heat of vaporization

Answer 14

again, at this temperature, the material temperature will not change till all the mass is converted to gaseous form

Answer 15

@iribeiro1602 I gave the answer first and then the explanation for it

Answer 16

kapeesh?

Answer 17

....i'm confused!

Answer 18

what! :/

Answer 19

where?

Answer 20

if the solid particles cannot vibrate, when all the particles have changed to liquid, then the particles can vibrate more right??!

Answer 21

I did not say "cannot"....
I said, "cannot any more" in the sense that they are already jumping up and down but cannot jump and higher!

Answer 22

"cannot vibrate" condition has a different story with it :) --> absolute zero, you do not have to worry about that

Answer 23

ok!

Answer 24

so I can answer what u just told me?

Answer 25

is that correct?

Answer 26

what! you questioning my word? :(

Answer 27

no :)!

Answer 28

you are the only one that answer it! :)

Answer 29

I'd never give out wrong answers. If I dont know, I'd just shut up!
but since I know, I did answer it. and you should take it happily.

Answer 30

ok! i'm your fan! THANKS!

Answer 31

this is also a high-school experiment

Answer 32

you're from what grade?

Answer 33

thank you.

experiment:
1) put some ice in a beaker and place a thermometer to measure the temperature.
2) note the temperature. Keep noting it every 10sec
3) place a small bunsen burner on a very low flame.
4) you'd see a graph like this:
