What happens to the temperature of the water as energy is supplied?
The temperature of the water increases steadily as more energy is transferred.
What pattern is seen when plotting temperature against time for water heating?
The graph shows a rising line because the water heats up at a roughly constant rate.
What does comparing energy supplied and temperature change show?
A larger energy input produces a larger temperature increase.
What conclusion is drawn about specific heat capacity of water?
Water requires a lot of energy to raise its temperature, showing it has a high specific heat capacity.
What happens to the temperature of ice as it begins to melt?
The temperature stays constant during melting.
What does the temperature-time graph show during melting of ice?
A flat (horizontal) section where the temperature does not change.
Why does the temperature stay constant during melting?
Energy is used to break bonds between particles instead of increasing temperature.
What happens after all the ice has melted?
The temperature begins to rise again as the liquid water warms.
