Physics · Thermal Properties
In a standard heating curve plot of temperature versus time for the phase changes of water starting from ice, which phase condition is correctly described?
- 1The temperature continues to rise continuously without any flat plateau regions during a phase change.
- 2The rising slope region of liquid water represents a state where water is fully converted into steam.
- 3Water starts boiling as soon as the temperature reaches the initial melting stage.
- 4The flat plateau region corresponding to the melting point represents ice and liquid water existing in thermal equilibrium.✓
Correct answer
The flat plateau region corresponding to the melting point represents ice and liquid water existing in thermal equilibrium.
