A student places three ice cubes in a beaker and allows them to partially melt. If she measures the temperature of the water in the beaker, what will she most likely observe? Explain your answer.
She will see that the temperature of the water is 0 degrees Celsius and it stays at that temperature until all the ice cubes completely melt.

<h2>Explanation:</h2>When ice partially melts, the surrounding water remains at 0° Celsius. This is because ice melting only involves the water molecules overcoming intermolecular forces, or forces holding molecules together. The water molecules themselves aren't increasing in kinetic energy when turning into liquid. Since temperature measures kinetic energy, the temperature in this case, remains at 0°.
To find how much energy it takes to cause a phase change in a substance, you must find the number of moles, and determine whether to use ΔHvap and ΔHfus. ΔHvap is used to show how much energy is involved in evaporation and condensation, and ΔHfus is the same but used for melting and freezing. To find number of moles of a given substance, use the formula: mass of given substance divided by atomic mass. Both numbers have to use the same mass unit. Then, multiply number of moles by ΔHvap or ΔHfus to get kJ.
In a heating curve graph, the flat lines represent no change in energy, or the phase changes. The steep lines are change in energy, which are either heating or cooling. The bottom line is a heating/cooling solid. A heating/cooling solid is the coldest phase, which is why the line is at the bottom.
