Question 11 (1 point)
Observe the heating curve of water below as it changes from a solid to liquid to gas as heat energy is being added.
Which list below correctly describes how adding heat energy affects water during a phase change and not during a phase change.
a
During a phase change: the added heat energy is used to overcome the forces of attraction between the water molecules, and the temperature of water decreases.
Not during a phase change: The added heat energy causes the kinetic energy of the particles to increase, which causes a decrease in temperature.
b
During a phase change: the added heat energy is used to overcome the forces of attraction between the water molecules, and the temperature of water remains the same.
Not during a phase change: The added heat energy causes the kinetic energy of the particles to increase, which causes a decrease in temperature.
c
During a phase change: the added heat energy is used to overcome the forces of attraction between the water molecules, and the temperature of water remains the same.
Not during a phase change: The added heat energy causes the kinetic energy of the particles to increase, which causes an increase in temperature.
d
During a phase change: the added heat energy is used to overcome the forces of attraction between the water molecules, and the temperature of water increases.
Not during a phase change: The added heat energy causes the kinetic energy of the particles to increase, the temperature of the water remains constant.
c
During a phase change: the added heat energy is used to overcome the forces of attraction between the water molecules, and the temperature of water remains the same.
Not during a phase change: The added heat energy causes the kinetic energy of the particles to increase, which causes an increase in temperature.
