The correct answer is A    

Explanation:

In this exercise we are given a graph of temperature versus time.

In calorimeter processes there are two types

* one that when giving thermal energy to the system its temperature increases, this fundamentally due to the greater kinetic energy of the molecular ones, this process observes in the graphs as a straight line of constant slope

* A process donates all the thermal energy that is introduced is cracked in breaking the molecular bonds, taking matter from one thermodynamic state to another, for example: liquid to gas.

This process in curves as a horizontal line, that is, there is no temperature change,

When analyzing the graph shown, parts C and D are the one that show a change in temperature with thermal energy. The correct answer is A
