    1. What is the difference between freezing and melting? By:Amy Deatsman

    2. Freezing Point The temperature at which a liquid becomes a solid Liquids start freezing at 32 degrees Fahrenheit.

    3. Melting Point The point at which a solid becomes a liquid Solids start melting at 32 degrees Fahrenheit.

    4. Why does freezing and melting both occur at 32 degrees Fahrenheit? 32 degrees Fahrenheit is both the freezing and boiling point. At this point a solid can start to melt. At this same point a liquid will start to freeze. 32 degrees Fahrenheit is the turning point for both of them.

    5. Liquid molecules They are close together No specific arrangement Vibrate Move about

    6. Solid molecule Tightly packed Have a certain pattern Vibrate Do not move from place to place

    7. What freezes and what melts? Freezes Water Ice cream Lakes Melts Ice cream Ice cubes Chocolate

    8. Watch what happens… Click on the link below Click on the add heat, back one, or take away heat to see how the temperature changes in the glass and also to see what happens to the ice when it gets above a certain temperature www.mnstate.edu/colson/petropuzzl/1d.html
