NEETPhysicsThermal Properties of Matter
When 100 g of water is supercooled to -10°C, due to some disturbance mechanized or otherwise, some of it suddenly freezes to ice. What will be the temperature of the resultant mixture and how much mass would freeze?
Options
- AResultant mixture reaches -10°C. 12.5 g of ice and rest is water.
- BResultant mixture reaches -5°C. 25 g of ice and rest is water.
- CResultant mixture reaches 0°C. 12.5 g of ice and rest is water.
- DResultant mixture reaches 5°C. 25 g of ice and rest is water.
Correct answer
C. Resultant mixture reaches 0°C. 12.5 g of ice and rest is water.
Step-by-step solution
Correct Option is : (C) Resultant mixture reaches 0°C. 12.5 g of ice and rest is water.
