does the kinetic energy of molecules increase during change of state of matters? Doesn't the heat absorped during change of state change kinetic energy of matters?

Open in App

Solution

When the state of matter changes the corresponding kinetic energy also changes as the molecules either slow down (gas to solid) or move faster (solid to gas).
