A beaker containing a mixture of liquid (A ) and liquid (B ), in equilibrium with each other, is cooled very slowly. If point ' (D ) ' on the graph is where solidification of both liquids is complete, how many different phases co-exist along line ' (C D ) ' if freezing point of liquid (B ) and liquid (A ) are (-25^ C ) and (-78^ C ) respectively.
Options
- A1
- B2
- C3
- D4
Correct answer
D. 4
Step-by-step solution
At point ' (D ) ', solidification of both liquids, (A ) and (B ) takes place. So, along the line ' (C D ) ' on the graph four phases will co-exist, which are liquid- (A ), solid- (A ), liquid- (B ) and solid- (B ).
