प्रश्न
Write scientific reason.
Even if boiling water is constantly heated, its temperature does not rise.
उत्तर
- The heat energy absorbed at a constant temperature during transformation of liquid into a gas is called the latent heat of vaporisation.
- When heat is supplied to boiling water, it is used to weaken the bonding between molecules of water, causing transformation from liquid state to gaseous state, i.e., steam.
- As the heat supplied is utilized for the change of state entirely, temperature of water does not change.
