Physics · Thermal Properties of Matter
Given below are two statements: Statement I: When a system containing ice in equilibrium with liquid water is heated, heat is absorbed by the system and there is no change in the temperature of the system until all the ice melts. Statement II: At the melting point of ice, heat absorption overcomes intermolecular forces of attraction holding the water molecules in the ice lattice, and the average kinetic energy of the molecules does not increase. In light of the above statements, choose the correct answer:
