PLEASE I NEED HELP WITH THIS: Explain the changes happening when a block of ice is placed in a frying pan and heated until it reaches boiling. Use the following vocabulary words in your explanation: state of matter, ice, water, water vapor, solid, liquid, gas, vibrate, slide, particles, thermal energy, temperature.

Respuesta :

When a block of ice is placed in a frying pan, it is first in a solid state, meaning that the particles are moving slowly and are tightly compacted together as well as vibrating. As the the temperature of the pan increases, the state of matter will go from a solid to a liquid, which will cause the thermal energy in the ice cube to increase and the particles will go from a vibrating state, to sliding state. By this time the ice will now be water. As the temperature of the pan continues to increase, the water will eventually become water vapor and turn into a gas because as the particles are heated, they will move faster causing them to expand.
