B) Absorbed energy results in the change in potential energy.

This is the correct answer for yah!

Answer: Option (C) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

During melting, heat is absorbed by the particles of a substance. As a result, particles gain kinetic energy and they start to move rapidly from their initial position.

Hence, there will be collisions between the particles of the atom. So, the particles start to slide past each other.

Thus, we can conclude that the energy change in the particles of a substance during melting shows that as the temperature increases during melting, the kinetic energy also increases.
