) If this substance is at the pressure and temperature of point E and the temperature is raised so that the pressure and temperature are equal to that of point F, what phase transition will occur?

Respuesta :

Answer:

The First-order phase transitions will occur.

Explanation:

The First-order phase transitions are those that involve a latent heat. During such a transition, a system either absorbs or releases a fixed (and typically large) amount of energy per volume while Second order phase transitions occur when a new state of reduced symmetry develops continuously from the disordered (high temperature) phase. The ordered phase has a lower symmetry than the Hamiltonian—the phenomenon of spontaneously broken symmetry.

There are six changes of phase that substances go through:

  •    Freezing: liquid to solid.
  •    Melting: solid to liquid.
  •    Condensation: gas to liquid.
  •    Vaporization: liquid to gas.
  •    Sublimation: solid to gas.
  •    Deposition: gas to solid.
