If chart B represents the cooling of 14.0 g of a substance at a constant rate, determine the amount of energy lost during condensation

Transcribed Image Text:# Phase Change Chart Explanation
## Chart B
### Overview
This chart illustrates the phase changes of a substance through various states (gas, liquid, solid) as it loses heat. The x-axis represents "Heat Lost (Joules)" while the y-axis denotes "Temperature (°C)."
### Key Points on the Chart
- **Point A to B:** Represents the gas phase. Temperature decreases from 150°C to approximately 110°C as heat is lost.
- **Point B to C:** The temperature remains constant at the gas boiling point (around 110°C). This indicates a phase change from gas to liquid.
- **Point C to D:** Shows the liquid phase. Temperature decreases from the liquid boiling point (around 110°C) to approximately 20°C as the substance loses heat.
- **Point D to E:** Temperature remains constant at the freezing point (around 20°C), indicating a phase change from liquid to solid.
- **Point E to F:** Represents the solid phase. Temperature further decreases from 20°C to -30°C as heat continues to be lost.
### Labels
- **Gas:** Indicates the gaseous state between points A and B.
- **Gas Boiling Point:** Marked at point B where the gas transitions to liquid.
- **Liquid Boiling Point:** Marked at point C, indicating the liquid state starts here.
- **Liquid:** Indicates the liquid state between points C and D.
- **Solid:** Indicates the solid state starting from point E through point F.
This chart helps understand how temperature changes correspond to each phase while a substance loses heat, clearly illustrating the transition points between different states of matter.
Expert Solution

Step 1
Condensation is the process in which gaseous state of a substance converts to liquid state. This process occurs at a constant temperature.
