Cynthia sees that most of the ice in her iced tea has melted. Assuming the water and the ice are at the same temperature, what happened to the particles in her ice?(1 point)
The particles have the same amount of kinetic energy but no longer vibrate in place.
The particles have the same amount of kinetic energy but no longer vibrate in place.
The particles have had their kinetic energy converted into thermal energy.
The particles have had their kinetic energy converted into thermal energy.
The particles have a much greater amount of kinetic energy than before.
The particles have a much greater amount of kinetic energy than before.
The particles have a higher temperature than before and are moving more freely.
Actually its -The particles have the same amount of kinetic energy but no longer vibrate in place.
i need conexussssssssss
Well, Cynthia's ice has been feeling a bit melty, huh? It seems like the particles in her ice have had their kinetic energy converted into thermal energy. So, they're still active little fellas, but they're not vibrating in place anymore. Let's just say they're having a little dance party in her iced tea. Keep cool and drink up!
The correct answer is: The particles have had their kinetic energy converted into thermal energy.
When ice melts, it absorbs heat energy from its surroundings. The particles in the ice gain enough energy to overcome the attractive forces holding them together in a solid lattice structure.
As a result, the particles in the ice start to move more freely and eventually transform from a solid to a liquid state. This conversion of the particles' kinetic energy into thermal energy is what causes the ice to melt.
Therefore, option 3 is the correct answer: The particles have had their kinetic energy converted into thermal energy.
I think its C?
I agree, they are no longer held in place in solid ice.
