Plymouth Rock. Plymouth Rock is the traditional site of disembarkation of William Bradford and the Mayflower Pilgrims who founded Plymouth Colony in 1620. The Pilgrims did not refer to Plymouth Rock in any of their writings; the first known written reference to the rock dates to 1715 when it was described in the town boundary records as a great rock. The first documented claim that Plymouth Rock was the landing place of the Pilgrims was made by Elder Thomas Faunce in 1741, 121 years after the Pilgrims arrive
Heat provides the energy needed to change a solid into a liquid. Heat energy is added to break the bonds between molecules in a solid. The amount of heat needed to cause a solid to turn to a liquid is called the melting point. Continue Reading. By removing heat energy, a liquid can be turned back into a solid. This is called freezing. Generally, matter cycles between the liquid and solid state by the removal or addition of heat energy. Intense heating of a liquid causes vaporization and creates a gas. Solids can skip the melting phase and turn into a gas by a process known as sublimation.
Which statement accurately describes what happens when ice melts in terms of energy? A. The ice releases energy which causes the water molecules to have less kinetic and potential energy, changing their configuration from solid to liquid. B. The ice releases energy which causes chemical bonds to break, changing the ice to water. C. The ice absorbs energy which causes chemical bonds to break, changing ice to water. D.
