Question

According to the phase diagram for water, how is the state of water determined?

Answer 1

Answer:

2. read the phase at the intersection of any given temperature and pressure

Explanation:

The phase diagram of water is a chart used to show the physical states of water at different pressures and temperatures. In a typical phase diagram, pressure is plotted against temperature. Water is known to have three states such as solid (ice), liquid (water), and gas (steam). In order to determine the physical state of water on the phase diagram, we just read the phase at the point at which the pressure and temperature values intersect. The correct answer is option (2).

Answer 2

I believe it’s 2? Because it’s saying read the temperature. Which is basically saying look at what state the water is in. Ex: hot or cold
