Answer:

Please find the answer in the explanation

Explanation:

Suppose the material is being heated.

a. What change of state is represented by line segment A?

The solid changes to liquid state. The change of state is Melting.

b. What is happening to the average kinetic energy of the particles during the change of state represented by line segment B? The average kinetic energy of the particle increases as the heat is applied but remains constant during the change of state.

c. What physical property does the temperature at point B represent?

Vapourisation.

If the liquid is kept at this temperature what state of matter will be observed?

If the temperature persists, the state of matter that will be observed will be gas. Because the liquid must have turned out to vapour.
