ANSWER:
Solution 40P
Step 1:
Given :
Initial temperature of water = 25 °C. Bunsen burner is placed under the sample and is hot enough to heat the water to its boiling point.
We know, the boiling point of water is 100 °C. So, as time increases, the heat energy given from the burner is increased and as a result the temperature of water is increased and once the temperature of water reaches 100 °C, water starts evaporating. The temperature then remains constant during the transition from boiling to evaporation. After the transition, the temperature increases with the time.
