The temperature versus time graph of a solid substance absorbing heat is shown. A graph is shown with Temperature followed by de
gree Celsius in parentheses labeled on the y axis and Time followed by minutes in parentheses labeled on the x axis. An upwards arrow is shown between y axis and the label and a right pointing arrow is shown between the x axis and the label. A slanting graph line starting at a point A near the intersection of the two axis is shown. The slanting graph after a point B starts running parallel to the x axis till point C. The line after point C slopes upwards till point D and then runs parallel to the x axis till point E after which it again slopes upwards to finally terminate at point F. What best describes the change taking place in section CD of the graph? The intermolecular bonds of the solid state are being broken as particles vibrate faster. The intermolecular bonds of the liquid state are being broken as particles flow faster. The particles of the solid vibrate faster as the kinetic energy of the particles increases. The particles of the liquid slide around faster as the kinetic energy of the particles increases.
The particles of the liquid slide around faster as the kinetic energy of the particles increases.
Explanation:
After all the bonds in the solid state are broken in part CD, the more free particles in the liquid state gain more kinetic energy with increase in energy supplied.
The increase in kinetic energy is indicated by the temperature increase thus the positive gradient of the part CD.
Kinetic energy means more vibrations thus the particles slide more and more against each other.
