Pls provide the solution.
Dear Student,
(b)
(i) We know that the slope of the temperature-time graph is inversely proportional to the specific heat capacity. And specific heat capacity in the liquid state is greater than specific heat capacity in the solid-state, which means that the slope of the solid-state is greater than the slope of the liquid state. Therefore the slope of CD is less than the slope of AB.
(ii) Boiling point of the substance is
And melting point of the substance is .
Regards
