So you start to add heat to it. What happens as you start to do this? Increasing the rate of heating of a substance at its melting point only causes more rapid melting. When the melting point is reached, ther thermal energy is sufficient to overcome intermolecular forces holding the components at their statioinary points. Thermal energy causes the components of the solid to vibrate faster. Heating of the now formed liquid results in increaseing the liquid temperture.arrow_forward
