Which of the following describes the relationship between energy transfer and particle potential energy during a change of state (Changes of state and specific latent heat)

The correct answer is Energy transfer changes potential energy without changing kinetic energy..

Unit lens: Check the units before giving the final statement so the physics quantity is not swapped. This question asks: Which of the following describes the relationship between energy transfer and particle potential energy during a change of state (Changes of state and specific latent heat). The correct response is Energy transfer changes potential energy without changing kinetic energy., because density links mass and volume, so the answer must preserve which quantity is being calculated. In Changes of state and specific latent heat, the marking point should connect directly to recall and apply the equation energy for a change of state = mass x specific latent heat. If the question includes values, the working must keep the appropriate unit and operation; if it is an explanation, it must name the relevant particle behaviour or energy change. This item belongs to Internal energy and energy transfers, so avoid answers that switch to a different quantity, confuse heat with temperature, or describe gas pressure without collisions when collisions are the reason. Checkpoint 385 is distinct because it uses this exact question context and the unit lens rather than a generic particle-model sentence.
