Question

What happens to the temperature of a mixture of ice and liquidwater as heat is applied at a constant rate?

A- The temperature of the mixture increases as the ice melts,and then continues to increase at the same rate once all the ice ismelted.

B- It is impossible to predict how the temperature will changeunless you know the amount of ice and water that is present beforethe heating begins

C- The temperature of the mixture slowly increases as the icemelts. Once all the ice has melted, the temperature of the liquidwater continues to rise, but at a faster rate.

D- The temperature of the mixture does not change at all untilall the ice has melted, at which point it increases at a constantrate.
