Solution
Change in state of matter due to heat
When a solid is heated, its temperature increases.
Its particles gain kinetic energy from heat and start vibrating faster. This continues till the matter reaches its melting point.
It is a point when further increase in heat does not increase the temperature.
If heat is continued at the melting point, a stage comes the force of attraction between them overcomes and the particles start moving away from their fixed positions, thus changing the solid to the liquid state.
When ice on heating ice changes into the water at the melting point.
