4 0

<span>Hydroelectric energy uses the movement of water to spin a turbine and produce electricity. Coal is a fossil fuel that is burned as an energy source, which results in emissions such as carbon dioxide, nitrogen, and sulfur. Coal use is associated with waste products both from the mining process to acquire the coal and also from the actual use of coal itself. Hydroelectric energy does not involve waste, but does pose potential problems to waterways. Coal use is more common than the use of hydroelectric energy.</span>

Explain how particles move before during and after melting

Aleksandr-060686 [28]

Answer:

Particles would move more freely, while still staying close together depending on the shape of the liquid

Explanation:

Melting is the process of going from a solid to a liquid due to the increase in heat/energy. This increase in heat/energy increases the speed at which the atoms within the object moves. Lets say we had an ice cube. While it is a cube, the particles inside the cube are slow and compact, staying close together.

When enough energy is gained, this makes the particles begin to move faster, gaining heat and energy which results in the ice cube melting and moving more freely than normal.
