Step-by-step explanation
Step 1.
Heating curve for one mole of benzene:
Based on the datas given here for of benzene a graph can be drawn with Temperature in on and heat added in on the .
Thus this graph which is drawn with the temperature as a function of heat added while heating one mole of benzene is the heating curve for one mole of benzene,which is as shown here in this image;
This heating process can be divided into five different stages.
In two of these segments (2 and 4) the temperature is constant as heat is added because the added heat goes into producing the phase transition of a solid to liquid or liquid to gas which are phase changes, thus not increasing the temperature.
The two states are in equilibrium during the transition and the temperature remains constant. The amount of heat required to achieve the state change is given by .Since here its one mole of methanol, .
In the other three segments (1, 3, and 5), temperature increases linearly. These segments represent the heating of a single state in which the deposited heat raises the temperature in accordance with the substance’s specific heat capacity.
