Question

State the number of phases I component for the following equilibrium 

i) H₂O_(s) ↔ H₂0_(l) ↔ H₂0_(g) 
ii)Mixture of Rhombic and monoclinic sulphur.

Answer 1

i) No. of Phases = 3 (solid, liquid and gas)
   No. of. components = 1 {H₂0).
ii) No. of Phases = 2 (rhombic and monoclinic)
    No. of. components = 1 (sulphur).
