Question

If you add energy to water that is at 100 degrees Celsius and 1 atm pressure, the temperature will?A. Go downB. Stay the sameC. Rise

Answer 1

Temperature will remain the same

Step-by-step explanation

When water reaches it boiling point at 100 degrees Celcius, the molecules of water will start moving independently and collide with each other.

At 100 degrees Celcius, it has attained an equilibrium between the liquid and vapor phase. Therefore, when energy is added to it, the temperature will remain the same and there will be a phase change.

Hence, the temperature will remain the same.
