When heat is constantly supplied by a burner to boiling water, then the temperature of water during vaporization:(a) rises very slowly (b) rises rapidly until steam is produced(c) first rises and then becomes constant (d) does not rise at all
Correct Answer: (d) does not rise at all
Explanation: The temperature of the water during vaporization does not change at all because the heat is used in overcoming particle-particle attraction forces, which in turn keeps the temperature constant.
