Question

During solidification, heat energy is liberated.

• A. True
• B. False

Answer 1

The correct option is A True

Yes, the statement is true that during solidification, heat energy is liberated.

With the help of example of water converting into ice, we can understand that when water gets converted into ice it gives off some heat which needs to be taken off.

Actually, liquid water has more energy than frozen water. When water freezes, it gives up some water's energy. This energy that is given up is latent heat of freezing. When water freezes, this latent heat of freezing is released.
