A block of ice, initially at -20^(@)C, is heated a steady rate until the temperature of the sample reaches 120^(@)C. Which of the following graphs best illustrates the temperature of the sample as a function of time?

Answer»




Solution :ICE melts at `0^(@)C` and boils at `100^(@)C` during these phase TRANSITIONS, the temperature remains constant. THEREFORE, the GRAPH of the sample's temperature must be MOMENTARILY flat at both `0^(@)C` and at `100^(@)C`.
