A student takes some water in a beaker and heats it over a flame for determining its boiling point. He keeps on taking its temperature readings. He would observe that the temperature of water :(1) keeps on increasing regularly(2) keeps on increasing irregularly(3) first increases slowly, then decreases rapidly and eventually becomes constant(4) first increases gradually and then becomes constant.
Correct Answer: (4) first increases gradually and then becomes constant.
Explanation: When we boil the water, its temperature rises gradually but after some time it becomes constant. During phase transformation temperature of the water becomes constant because all the heat supplied to increase the temperature will be utilizing in changing the state by overcoming the force of attraction between the particles.

- A student sets up an apparatus to determine the melting point of ice. He takes a beaker half filled with crushed ice and dips a mercury thermometer with an initial reading of room temperature (25ºC) in such a way that the bulb of the thermometer is surrounded by ice. The correct observation obtained by the student is that :Mercury in the thermometer keeps on falling till it reads, −1ºC and becomes constant thereaftertemperature falls, reaches 0ºC, then it remains constant even after the whole of the ice has meltedthe temperature falls in the beginning but starts rising as soon as the ice starts meltingtemperature falls, reaches 0ºC and remains constant only as long as both ice and water are present in it
