The wire is initially at a temperature of  and its melting point is 1085?C.

Calculate the energy required to raise the temperature of the wire to its melting

point.

Once the melting point is reached, there is no further increase in temperature until

all of the copper has melted. Discuss what happens to the energy of the copper

atoms before and during the melting process.

Idea that whilst copper is being heated to melting point, energy supplied

is (mainly) transformed into K.E. of atoms/molecules 

At melting point:

no change in K.E. of atoms/molecules OR energy supplied is

transformed into P.E. of atoms/molecules
