Solution
when energy is either given to or taken out from the system
When energy is given to the system the solid state changes to liquid. When energy is taken out from a liquid it changes to solid e.g., ice changes to water and water to water vapours when heat energy is given. Water vapours or steam condense to water and water freezes to ice when energy is decreased.
