Describe what you would see if you graphed the heating curve for water, going from ice to gas. Why is a heating curve not a straight line? Include temperatures of phase changes and describe the slopes of the line through various temperature regions. You may draw a diagram if you are writing your response by hand.

The graph you make is Temperature (y-axis) as a function of time (x-axis), where the temperature is in degrees Celsius and the time in minutes.

In this graph it can be seen that the water does not appear in a linear way, but rather ascending, since as the temperature increases, the aggregation changes appear.

At one hundred degrees the water undergoes a process called BOILING and it is there that it begins to evaporate slowly over time and becomes water vapor (gaseous).

In the case of the liquid state this will be reached when the water is subjected to a heat of 0 degrees Celsius, that is why at room temperature we see it as liquid.

If the water is at a temperature lower than one and reaches zero degrees it reaches its solidification (this is what happens in our frezeer when making ice cubes)

Explanation:

The states of water aggregation are only three, and are the ones that are drawn up in said graph.
