Which of the following statements about the heating curve of water at constant pressure is INCORRECT? A. The flat segment at 100°C is longer than the flat segment at 0°C. B. The slope of the segment at temperature below 0°C is the same as the slope of the segment at temperature above 100°C. C. There is no temperature change during phase changes. D. The slope of the segment below 0°C measures the heat capacity of ice. E. The slope of the segment at temperature below 0°C is less steeper than the slope of the segment at temperature above 0°C but below 100°C.
States of Matter
The substance that constitutes everything in the universe is known as matter. Matter comprises atoms which in turn are composed of electrons, protons, and neutrons. Different atoms combine together to give rise to molecules that act as a foundation for all kinds of substances. There are five states of matter based on their energies of attraction, namely solid, liquid, gases, plasma, and BEC (Bose-Einstein condensates).
Chemical Reactions and Equations
When a chemical species is transformed into another chemical species it is said to have undergone a chemical reaction. It consists of breaking existing bonds and forming new bonds by changing the position of electrons. These reactions are best explained using a chemical equation.
