The temperature remains same during the phase change.

Answer: Option C

Explanation:

The term “change of phase” is similar to “change of state”. When there is a change of substance from a state to the other state or phase, it is known as changes in its state. This change of state occurs due to the change of heat.

When a substance changes the phase, either the heat comes out or goes in the substance. Although there occur a change in the content of heat present in the substance, the temperature will not change. It remains constant. When ice melts it becomes water and the water vaporizes which becomes water vapour.
