Which statement describes how phase changes can be diagrammed as a substance is heated?
A. The phase is on the y-axis and the temperature is on the x-axis.
B. The temperature is on the y-axis and the phase is on the x-axis.
C. The time is on the y-axis and the temperature is on the x-axis.
D. The temperature is on the y-axis and the time is on the x-axis.

Question

GinnyAnswer · Answer

The proper diagram representation for phase changes as a substance is heated is where the phase is on the y-axis and the temperature is on the x-axis. This is often depicted in a phase change diagram. As the temperature increases, the substance transitions between solid, liquid, and gas phases. ;

The correct representation of phase changes as a substance is heated is that the phase is on the y-axis and the temperature is on the x-axis. This is commonly depicted in a phase change diagram or heating curve. Understanding this diagram helps visualize how substances transition between solid, liquid, and gas phases with temperature changes.
