**Understanding Phase Changes in Red Phosphorus**The triple point of red phosphorus occurs at a pressure of 43 atmospheres (atm) and a temperature of 590°C. This means that at this specific combination of pressure and temperature, red phosphorus can coexist in three different phases: solid, liquid, and gas.### Problem Statement:If a solid sample of red phosphorus is heated from 25°C to 700°C at 1 atm, what will be its phase?#### Options:A) ... more information is needed to determine if a phase change occurs.B) ... the solid will remain a solid.C) ... the solid will melt.D) ... the solid will sublime.### Analysis:Considering the initial conditions:- Initial Temperature: 25°C- Final Temperature: 700°C- Constant Pressure: 1 atmGiven the triple point data and the conditions:- At 1 atm, the triple point temperature (590°C) is notably higher than the current temperature (25°C) but lower than the final temperature (700°C).- At a pressure of 1 atm, the behavior of red phosphorus as it heats past 590°C must be considered; specifically, whether it transitions directly from solid to gas (sublimation) without forming a liquid due to these conditions.### Interpretation of the Data:When the temperature surpasses the triple point while maintaining a lower pressure (1 atm), the solid red phosphorus bypasses the liquid state and directly forms gas. This process is known as sublimation.### Conclusion:At 1 atm, heating red phosphorus from 25°C to 700°C causes it to sublime rather than melt into a liquid.Correct Answer: **D) ... the solid will sublime.**
