When solid ice gains heat, it changes state from solid ice to liquid water in a process called melting. Ice cubes in a cold drink, for example, gradually melt. ... When water absorbs enough heat, it becomes a gas (water vapor). This process is called evaporation.
The quote that most strongly show Locke's influence on those who drafted the Declaration of Independence:
"<span>Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed..."
Locke (along with Hobbes and Rousseau) was a proponent of a social contract, for he believed that we would gain more than what we would sacrifice if we were to enter a social contract and form a society.</span>
