This are heating up (and cooling down) in AP Chemistry!
But what exactly is a heating curve? It’s a diagram that shows how the temperature of a substance changes as heat is added or removed at a constant rate—revealing important phase changes like melting and freezing. This hands-on experiment helps students visualize the science behind phase transitions in real time!
