As a substance reaches its boiling point it changes from a liquid to a gas. As this happens the bonds that are holding the molecules together break allowing the molecules to wander off on their own as a gas. 6. As a substance reaches its freezing point it turns from a liquid to a solid.
Step by step process of what happens during melting: 1  Heat energy is absorbed by the particles. 2  Heat energy is converted to kinetic energy. 3  The kinetic energy of the particles increases and the particles in the solid vibrate faster.
