why the temperature of melting ice does not rise even though heat is being supplied continuously?
Answers
Answer:
Because of the latent heat of vapourasition
Explanation:
When we heat an ice a heat is absorbed by the ice to change its state of solid ti liquid that is known as latent heat of vapourisation
Once water starts boiling, all the heat supplied to it is used in conversion of water into steam at the boiling point of water.
Hence, there is no rise in its temperature.
★ Boiling point of liquid :
The constant temperature at which a liquid transforms into gaseous state is called the boiling point of the liquid.
★ Latent heat of fusion :
The amount of heat energy absorbed at constant temperature by unit mass of a solid to convert into liquid phase is called the specific latent heat of fusion.
★ Latent heat of vaporization :
The amount of heat energy absorbed at constant temperature by unit mass of a liquid to convert into gaseous phase is called the specific latent heat of vaporization.
