Any substance above its critical temperature exists as _____________________?

Correct answer: C. Gas

  • A. Saturated vapour
  • B. Solid
  • C. Gas
  • D. Liquid

Explanation

Above the critical temperature, no amount of pressure can produce a separate liquid-vapour phase transition. The substance is therefore in the gas or supercritical-gas region, making gas the intended choice.
