Answer» Normally when pressure is increased, increasing the pressure when a system is in equilibrium between liquid and solid phases will increase the phase transition temperature. so, it tries to remain in solid form. but for water , it is opposite . the transition temperature decreases as , water expands on on cooling. so , here it will go to liquid phase. when pressure is increased answer is option A. |
