    A block of ice at temperature \[-\text{20}{{\,}^{\text{o}}}\text{C}\]is slowly heated and converted to steam at \[\text{100}{{\,}^{\text{o}}}\text{C}\] Which of the following diagram is most appropriate?

    A)              

    B)  

    C)

    D)

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

                     The ice at \[-\text{20}{{\,}^{\text{o}}}\text{C}\]converts to ice at \[\text{0}{{\,}^{\text{o}}}\text{C,}\] thus having an increase in temperature. On further heating, ice at \[\text{0}{{\,}^{\text{o}}}\text{C}\]is converted into water at \[\text{0}{{\,}^{\text{o}}}\text{C,}\] thus the temperature remaining constant, a change of phase occurs. Water at \[\text{0}{{\,}^{\text{o}}}\text{C}\]when heated changes to water at \[\text{100}{{\,}^{\text{o}}}\text{C,}\] thus resulting in an increase of temperature. Water at \[\text{100}{{\,}^{\text{o}}}\text{C}\]changes to steam at \[\text{100}{{\,}^{\text{o}}}\text{C,}\]  thus resulting in a change of phase. Hence, Fig.   is the correct answer.
